Rockets for Ricky

With Aaron Benton all in for his last 9,500 preflop from the button, Ricky Kroesen and Tatjana Zizic both came along in the blinds to see a flop of {6-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Diamonds}. Kroesen led out for 10,500 into the side pot before Zizic min-raised to 21,000.

Kroesen called as the {q-Spades} fell on the turn. Kroesen checked and Zizic bet another 20,000. By this stage Benton was already out of his chair in resignation as Kroesen made the call to see the {5-Diamonds} complete the board on the river.

Both live players checked the river as Kroesen opened {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} for the best hand. Zizic flashed {a-Spades}{10-Clubs} as Benton’s cards hit the muck. With that, we are down to 17 players and are two off reaching the money.
