Benzel Hits River
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Susie Benzel was an underdog after she got it all-in for 56,500 from the button and was called by the original raiser from early position to put Benzel at risk.
Susie Benzel: A♥10♥
Opponent: A♠K♣
Benzel was behind the better ace or her opponent, and the flop did not offer much to work with as it fanned out 2♣3♣9♦ to keep her opponent ahead.
The A♣ turn still meant that Benzel was dealing with kicker problems, but those problems vanished on the river when the 10♦ came to improve Benzel to two pair to award her the pot.
