Ben Keeline Eliminated by Ralph McDesmond

Jun 27, 2018

With the board showing Diamond 10Heart 8Heart 7Spade 7 on the turn, Ben Keeline is all in, and Robert Cheung and Ralph McDesmond are still in action. There was some confusion in the betting, and a floorperson was called over. It’s ruled that Cheung hasn’t acted yet, and McDesmond has bet 1,000 out of turn.

Cheung has the option to bet, which would change the action and allow McDesmond to change his action, or Cheung can check, forcing McDesmond to bet 1,000. That’s what Cheung does; he checks, McDesmond bets 1,000, and Cheung calls.

The river card is the Club 2, Cheung checks, McDesmond moves all in, and Cheung quickly folds.

Keeline shows Diamond 9Club 5 for nine high (missed his straight draw), and McDesmond turns over Heart 10Heart 9 to win the pot with two pair, tens and sevens. Keeline is eliminated.

Ralph McDesmond  –  110,000  (92 bb)
Robert Cheung  –  15,000  (13 bb)
Ben Keeline  –  Eliminated
