Gavin Smith Finds New Backer for 2012 WSOPPoker Pro Says He's Feeling Very Good This Year |

Smith on Day 1 of Event No. 6
Smith busted Karr on the hand and left Elias with just a handful of small denomination chips.
As he was stacking his monster stack of about 120,000, the dealer asked Smith if he had appeared on TV somewhere. Smith replied, “Yeah, do you watch porn?”
The gregarious poker pro said he’s feeling very good at the Series. He’s played a few events so far, but hasn’t cashed yet. Smith won his only bracelet in 2010.
“I’m playing well and think I am going to have a good year,” Smith said during a break in play. He will probably register for 25 events this summer.
He used to be backed by Erick Lindgren, as Smith said that’s no longer the case. He declined to name the new backer. Lindgren has been a no-show in events so far this summer.
