Roeg Eliminated

Team PokerNews player Nicky Roeg summed up his elimination from the tournament thusly: "Bad turn. Bad river." He took a three-way flop in an unraised pot of {5-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {3-Clubs}. He and Jeff Madsen both checked to the button player, who bet 550. Madsen check-raised that bet to 1,600. Only Roeg called.

The turn fell {J-Diamonds}. Madsen made it 3,500 to go and again Roeg called. On the river {A-Clubs}, Madsen moved all in. Roeg tanked for over a minute before calling and tabling {A-Hearts} {J-Hearts}. He flopped the nut flush draw and then made a running top two pair. The problem was that Madsen turned over the nuts, {4-Clubs} {6-Spades} to bounce Roeg from the tournament.

"Never go broke in an unraised pot?" Roeg queried us as he left the tournament area.
