Carter Cracks Aces to Send Bender to the Rail

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

Gary Reisman opened for 950 under the gun and Bruce Carter called from middle position. The player in the small blind came along, and then Jason Bender three-bet to 6,300 from the big. Reisman called, as did Carter, and the small blind folded to make it three-way action to the {k-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop.

Bender wasted little time in moving all in for just over 9,000, Reisman folded, and Carter snap-called.

Carter: {k-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Bender: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}

"How about a jack?" Carter asked the dealer.

"No jack," Bender replied.

"Or a king," Carter added. The dealer obliged with the {K-Hearts} on the turn.

Bender was clearly upset, and watched helplessly as a {Q-} blank on the river to send him to the rail.
