Forrest Holds Up

We caught up to the action to find Ted Forrest heads up with another player on a flop of {8-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. Forrest's opponent put out a bet and Forrest reraised him all in.

Forrest held {K-}{J-} while his opponent had {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts} for a weaker pair of jacks and a flush draw.

The turn came a {4-Spades} and the river was a {8-Clubs} giving Forrest another knock out in this tournament.
