Benton Blessed With No River Heart

With around 3,000 in the pot and the board reading {3-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts} Aaron Benton was faced with a bet of 2,350 from his opponent in the big blind.

Benton thought for a little before making the call as the {8-Clubs} landed on the river and he was faced with a 5,750-chip bet.

Taking his time, Benton eventually folded tabling his {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts} face up.

"I wish you would have hit a heart!" his opponent said.

"Show it then!" demanded Benton.

His opponent flashed his {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for a full house to rake in the pot as Benton slips to 23,000 in chips.
