Rizvi Busts Knight in Five-Bet Pot

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Alexander Rizvi

Keilan Knight opened to 600 from middle position, before being faced with a three-bet to 1,600 from Jonathan Alley in the next seat. Action folded to Alexander Rizvi in the big blind, who produced a cold four-bet to 4,000.

Back to Knight, who quickly reached for chips and pumped it up to 11,600. Alley quipped "Deja vu" before folding, but Rizvi made the call.

On the KJ8 flop, Rizvi check-called a bet of 14,500 from Knight.

The 10 hit on the turn, bringing a double flush draw along with straight possibilities, and Knight quickly jammed for around 23,000 when Rizvi checked.

Rizvi went into the tank, but made the call after around 90 seconds.

Keilan Knight: QQ All in
Alexander Rizvi: AK

Knight had turned second pair queens with the up and down draw into a semi-bluff, and needed help on the river. The 7 was a brick and Rizvi scooped a monster pot.
