Moments ago, Aaron Benton was faced with a call for his tournament life. The hand started with a player in early position opening with a bet to 600. Benton called, as did another player in late position, before the small blinded counted out a raise, and threw in 2,450.
Only Benton made the call to see the flop come out . The small blind sat motionless, looking at Benton, before counting out a continuation bet of 2,175 and placing it in the middle. Benton called to see the drop on the flop. This time the small blind took a little longer to make a decision, eying off Benton’s stack, before announcing all-in.
Benton decided for a better spot to commit his remaining chips, mucking his face-up. With that hand, Benton drops down to 9,000 in chips.
With approximately 9,000 in the pot, and a board reading , Sam Razavi committed his remaining 9,900 in chips from the small blind, and waited for a decision from his opponent, who was on the button. The two sat there, talking amongst themselves, before the player on the button decided to fold.
Razavi was grateful as he scooped in the pot, tabling the for his opponent to see. That hand lifts Razavi back up to 18,500 in chips.
The action started with a raise from the player under-the-gun to 400. A player in middle position made the call, before facing a raise to 1,500 from the player in the hijack. Mishel Anunu still hadn’t acted, and he decided to re-raise to 4,000 from the small blind. Only the hijack player made the call to see the board fall .
Anunu continued with a bet of 3,600, only to be thrown off-guard by an instant re-raise to 16,500. He tanked for a minute or so, before finally folding.
Four players limped into the pot, including Charles Caris in the cut-off, and all saw the flop come out . The small blind led out for 525, which forced a fold from the next two players, but not Caris, who obliged. The turn brought a check from both players, before the fell on the river.
The small blind again bet out 600, and was almost beaten into the pot by Caris, who went all in for his remaining 6,000 in chips. His opponent looked a little stunned, and eventually folded, allowing Caris to move back up to just short of 9,000 in chips.
