Foote Spikes the River to KO Cerbone
Level 21
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Joe Foote raised to 60,000 from the small blind, Matthew Cerbone shoved for around 200,000 from the big blind, and Foote called with a covering stack to put him at risk.
Matthew Cerbone: K♣J♠
Joe Foote: Q♣J♣
Cerbone was in great shape to double up with a dominating jack, and he remained ahead on the 8♣10♥10♠ flop, while Foote picked up a gutshot. The 5♠ turn was a brick, but the 9♦ river brought the straight in for Foote, resulting in Cerbone's elimination.
