Kuo Finishes Off Benson

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante
Gary Benson
Gary Benson

Not long ago, Kitty Kuo crippled Gary Benson down to just 3,000, but the Australian legend refused to go down without a fight. Benson stuck it out for as long as he could, but eventually he called off from the big blind holding {q-}{10-} after Kuo had moved all in from the small with {9-}{8-}.

Benson got it in good, but Kuo hit gin on the {j-}{10-}{9-} flop. Benson had flopped a pair and an open-ended straight draw, but both the turn and river would blank to allow Kuo's straight to hold. With that, Benson took his leave from the tournament.
