Kneale Knocks Out Belforti
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
On a four-way flop of 10♦9♥6♥, Jason Kelp bet 1,500 and was called by Kristofer Kneale in the small blind. Justin Belforti check-raised to 5,200 with around 12,000 behind and that forced out Kelp.
Kneale then pushed all-in and Belforti called it off with the inferior stack.
Justin Belforti: Jx8x
Kristofer Kneale: 6♣6♦
Kneale was ahead with bottom set against the open-ended straight draw but fell behind on the Q♦ turn. However, the Q♦ river paired the board and that sent Belforti to the rail.
