Benny Glaser
Benny Glaser

Ian Drake raised to 12,000 from the hijack and was called by Benny Glaser on the button and Arto Mansner in the big blind.

The flop came {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}. Mansner checked and Drake continued for 20,000. Benny Glaser moved all in and Mansner called. Players flipped their cards, with Glaser at risk and Drake with most of his chips in the middle.

Benny Glaser: {a-Spades}{4-Spades}
Ian Drake: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Drake was ahead with top pair and a higher kicker. The turn came the {2-Diamonds} and the river was the {3-Clubs} to give Glaser a runner-runner straight and a significant double up. Drake was left short following the confrontation.
