Van der Fluit Left Shaking His Head

Action folded to Vincent van der Fluit on the button and he put in a raise to 2,600. The small blind got out of the way while David Benefield three-bet to 8,000 from the big. Van der Fluit made the call and watched as the flop came down {6-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades}. Benefield didn't take long before firing out 6,500, which van der Fluit quickly made 13,500. Benefield thought for a few seconds before tossing in a call.

When the {K-Spades} appeared on the turn, Benefield checked and van der Fluit asked for a count. Benefield had 43,500 back, so van der Fluit bet 40,000. Benefield committed his entire stack, van der Fluit made the call, and the cards were turned up.

van der Fluit: {6-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Benefield: {A-Spades}{10-Spades}{A-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

Benefield was behind van der Fluit's trip sixes, but he did have outs to any spade or ace. With 120K in the pot, the dealer burned and slowly put out the {K-Spades}. Benefield was elated to take down the pot while van der Fluitcould only shake his head in disbelief.
