Gary Benson opened to 750, with both Graeme Putt and the small blind making the call. The flop of {j-Clubs}

{j-Clubs}

{9-Spades}

{q-Clubs}

saw the small blind shove for 4,800 which Benson flat-called, before Graeme Putt re-shoved for 8,800. Again Benson made the call, this time for all of his chips and the players showed down their cards.

Small Blind: {k-Spades}

{k-Spades}

{q-Spades}

Benson:

{q-Diamonds}

{j-Diamonds}

Putt:

{k-Diamonds}

{k-Hearts}

Benson would be leading the hand, and when the turn spiked the {j-Spades}

{j-Spades}

Benson's two pair improved to a full boat. The river completed the {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

leaving Putt with just 250 chips, and eliminating the other player.

Benson moves up to 27,400. Putt was eliminated a few hands later.
