Rossiter Finds the Right Turn Card
Geoff Smith won ANZPT Auckland back in November and will be looking for more New Zealand poker success here in Queenstown. He started the day as one of the chip leaders, so that's good news for him. However, his stack has just taken a little hit thanks to Jeff Rossiter.
We arrived at the action with a flop out on the felt and with Smith checking out of the big blind position, to Rossiter in middle position. Rossiter bet 1,900 here and Smith made the call. The turn was a and again Smith checked. This time Rossiter bet 4,200 and Smith took his time before making the call.
The board was completed with a and Smith once again tapped the table. Rossiter moved all in here for 8,300. Smith studied Rossiter for some time, looking from the Aussie to the board cards and back again. Eventually Smith decided to make the call and would immediately regret it as Rossiter tabled for the nut flush and enough for a double up.
