Hedef Hits River to Crack Benoit's Kings
Level 6
: Blinds 300/700, 700 ante
Action was on the turn on a board of 4♥2♥9♣8♠ and Maxime Benoit checked. Jean Francois Hedef made a bet of 6,500 and Benoit check-raised all in for 13,000, leaving Hedef with very little left to call given that the pot was already inflated.
Hedef called and showed A♣7♥ for ace-high. Benoit had K♠K♣ for pocket kings and was way ahead.
The river, however, brought the A♦ and gave Hedef a pair of aces. "Ahh, Oui!" shouted out Hedef. Benoit looked disappointed, but still wished his tablemates good luck as he took his leave.
