Forrest Tries a Check-Raise-Bluff and Fails

We found Ted Forrest mixing it up at Table 58 just a few moments ago calling a raise preflop in the big blind. The Under the Gun player who had raised preflop, continued his aggression on a flop of {3-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{5-Spades} by betting out 600. The small blind made the call, and then the action was on Forrest who decided to move all-in. After tanking for a good couple of minutes the Under the Gun player made the call while the Small Blind folded.

Cards were flipped and it was Ted Forrest's {K-}{J-} versus his opponent's {8-}{8-}. The check-raise-bluff didn't exactly work for Forrest as the next two cards came out two misses, a {10-} and {10-}.
