Rocket Fuel for Kniska

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante

John Kniska raised from the under-the-gun position to 1,300 and was called by the Donnie Phan in the hijack as well as both players in the blinds.

After a flop of {8-Spades}{6-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}, both blinds checked and Kniska continued for 1,600. Phan folded, the small blind called, and the big blind folded.

On a {2-Clubs} turn, the small blind checked and then called the 3,200 bet from Kniska.

The river {8-Hearts} created a similar pattern with the small blind check-calling Kniska's bet of 5,000.

Kniska tabled {a-Clubs}{a-Spades} while the small blind revealed the {a-Hearts}, the final ace in the deck.
