Agaev Spikes the River to Eliminate Bennani

Brett Slezak

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Adam Agaev opened to 30,000 from early position before Najib Bennani jammed for 125,000 from the small blind, and Agaev called.

Najib Bennani: A♣6♣ All in
Adam Agaev: J♥10♥

The A♠J♦2♣ flop gave both players a pair but Bennani remained in the lead. Then, the Q♦ landed on the turn to give even more outs to Agaev.

Bennani could not believe his luck as the 10♣ peeled off on the river, giving Agaev two pair to eliminate Bennani.
