Elliot Smith Barely Hanging On
The player under the gun plus one limps into the pot, followed by the player in the hijack, as well as Elliot Smith and Eli Elezra in the blinds.
The flop comes down and the action folds to the player in the hijack who bets 1,200. Only Smith calls before the drops on the turn.
Smith checks once again before his opponent bets out 5,000, enough to cover his stack.
"What do you have?" asks Smith to his opponent. "Come on. Tell me this one time," he adds.
"We've all been drinking here man," pleads Smith. "What do you want me to do?" he asks again.
"Up to you," his opponent finally answers. Three minutes then pass as Smith pulls his t-shirt over his face before sitting motionless.
The clock is finally called on Smith, and with just four seconds left in his countdown, finally opts to let his hand go.
"Good fold buddy," says Elezra to Smith.
"What did you have?" asked Smith's opponent from the hand.
"I had a jack," responds Smith.
Smith's opponent then flashes a to reassure he made the right laydown.
Elliot Smith - 4,325
