Elias Wins Massive Flip
Level 12
: Blinds 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante
Action was opened in middle position to 5,000. Ryan McKnight was next to act and put in a three-bet to 18,000. The action was then on Robert Elias on the button who put in a cold four-bet to the tune of 50,000. Middle position folded and action was back on McKnight who five-bet jammed for 129,000 effective. Elias called and the cards hit their backs.
Ryan McKnight: Q♣Q♠
Robert Elias: A♦8♦
The flop looked good for McKnight in the form of 7♠9♠2♠. The 5♦ turn was clean but unfortunately tragedy on the river with the A♥.
McKnight hit the rail and Elias dragged a massive pot to catapult him into the chip lead.
