Ben Runs Into Bullets
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Getting to the table to see Jon Kyte was all-in and at risk for his last 17,600, with Rio Ben being the player trying to bust him.
Jon Kyte: A♥A♦
Rio Ben: A♣5♠
Kyte had the best starting hand in a poker, and only a brutal runout would see him exit the tournament.
The flop came down J♣8♣7♥, giving Ben a few backdoor draws. He managed to pick up a flush draw on the K♣ turn, but he bricked it when the J♥ completed the board.
Kyte was up to over the starting stack, while Ben's stack was cut in half.
