Gustafsson Gets Full Value to Grab Chip Lead
In a four-way pot between Ulf Gustafsson in the small blind, Paul McGann in the big blind, Raitis Romanovs under the gun, and Keith Smith in the hijack, 4,000 chips had been gathered.
The flop read 10?9?3? and the action checked to Smith, who fired a bet of 3,000. Gustafsson then made it 8,000 to go, which folded out McGann. Romanovs, however, called cold and Smith tossed in the extra chips as well.
On the subsequent 4? turn, Gustafsson sized up to 15,000. Romanovs quickly folded but Smith still stuck around with a call. Gustaffson then put Smith all in for 16,000 on the 10? river and the latter slammed in a call.
Gustafsson tabled K?K? for two pair with kings, beating the J?J? Smith showed. Smith headed towards the exit while Gustafsson chipped up to a six-figure stack.
