Classic Cooler Ends Knafo
Level 2
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Rostyslav Hertsyk raised to 600 under the gun and Stephane Knafo three-bet from the next seat to 2,000. Lucas Borges cold four-bet to 4,500 from middle position, and the action folded back to Hertsyk.
Hertsyk took another look at his cards before jamming for about the starting stack. Knafo stuck his stack of 25,000 into the middle, which got Borges to fold what he said after the hand was big slick.
Stephane Knafo: K♦K♣ 
Rostyslav Hertsyk: A♣A♦
It was poker's classic preflop cooler, with Knafo firmly on the wrong end of it.
No help arrived for Knafo on the 8♣5♥Q♥6♣9♠ runout, sending him to the rail almost six days earlier than he would have dreamed of.
