A Preflop Prophecy

"I'm going to give you a bad beat," Matthew Kirk told Artem Metalidi before the flop came down {q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{4-Clubs}.

Metalidi moved all in for around 29,000, and Kirk made the call.

Kirk{a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}
Metalidi{a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}

Kirk's queens and fours held as the turn and river came {2-Clubs}, {6-Clubs} respectively, eliminating Metalidi from the tournament.

"I knew I was going to give him a bad beat," Kirk announced as he was pulling in the pot. "I wasn't lying."
