Straight Flush for Bennett
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
The pot had built to over 100,000 when this hand was picked up on a board that read 3♠10♣7♣8♣. Henry Shepherd shoved for approximately 40,000 on the turn from middle position before Jonathan Bennett called on the button and put Shepherd at risk.
Henry Shepherd: 9♦8♠
Jonathan Bennett: J♣9♣
Bennett not only had the best hand, but he had a straight flush, as Shepherd had no recourse to win the hand.
The meaningless Q♦ hit the river as Shepherd exited the tournament.
At another table, Colin Heaton busted before Shepherd to fall out of contention.
