Benefield Advances

On the last hand of round 1, Scott Augustine was all in for 800 chips before the flop. He and David Benefield each turned over one card, Augustine showing the {8-Spades} and Benefield showing the {3-Spades}.

The board ran out {A-?} {9-?} {8-?} {10-?} {3-?}. As the cards lay, Augustine was ahead. He turned over his second card, not improving with the {10-Diamonds}. Benefield rolled over the {3-Hearts} though, giving him the winning set of three and punching his ticket to round two.
