Richie Smith raised to 3,000 before the flop and was called by Wendy Weissman. The flop came . Smith checked, Weissman pushed all in for about 25,000, and after a period of contemplation Smith made the call.
Weissman had , but Smith had . The turn and river didn't change things, and Weissman is out. Smith is up to 70,000.
Smith tells us he won his entry via a satellite hosted by 2005 WSOP Main Event runner-up Steve Dannenmann. Looks like Smith currently has about twice what Dannenmann does, as Dannenmann has 36,000.
