Level 7
Dan Smith
Dan Smith

No-Limit Hold'em

Heads-up on a completed board of 104284 with about 5,000 already in the middle, Tomasz Gluszko had a bet in front of him from the big blind and was faced with a shove from Dan Smith, who was in the hijack.

Gluszko went deep into the tank as he contemplated calling all in for his last 13,000 and eventually the clock was called.

Gluszko let his hand go and Smith tabled AJ for a bluff.

"How do you feel right now?" tablemate Nitesh Rawtani asked.

"I learned something," Gluszko responded.
