Bluff This

Ernst Hermans opened the pot with a raise to 250,000 and Aaron Benton made the call. The flop came down {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}{8-Clubs} and Benton checked to Hermans who fired a 125,000 continuation bet. Benton then check-raised to 500,000 prompting Hermans to fold.

As he raked in the pot, Benton tabled the {Q-Spades}{9-Hearts} showing nothing but queen high as he told Hermans (paraphrased), "You're not the only one who can play poker, my friend!"
