Knackstedt Sacked

Jordan Knackstedt open-raised all in for 50,000 even from middle position and was called in two spots by Derek Chisholm (button) and Daniel Rudd (small blind). The flop came {5-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}. Rudd checked, Chisholm bet 50,000, and after some thought Rudd called.

The turn then brought the {9-Clubs}. Rudd check quickly, and after about a half-minute Chisholm declared he was all in for the 360,000 or so he had left. Rudd tanked for a couple of minutes, then let his hand go.

Chisholm turned over {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts} for two pair while Knackstedt had but {A-Clubs}{8-Spades}, meaning the {5-Clubs} river was no matter. Knackstedt is out, while Chisholm adds to his stack.
