Idema Widens The Gap
Daniel Idema raised from middle position and both blinds called in Cathleen Tran and Justin Smith. It was checked to Idema who bet on the 
flop and Tran called leaving herself not much behind. Smith put in a raise and Idema three-bet which got Tran out of the way but Smith stuck around. Smith check-called the rest of the way on the 
turn and 
river and Idema showed 
. Smith mucked and said that he had hoped another king would have hit indicating that he must have had a worse king and wanted Idema’s kicker to be counterfeited. In any case, Tran was crippled, Smith took a hit and Idema was the first to crack the half-million mark.
