Benyamine's Sneaky River

With the board reading {J-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {9-Diamonds}, David Benyamine checked and Bruno Fitoussi bet 800. A player behind raised to 2,700. Benyamine made the call and so did Fitoussi. The turn was the {2-Spades} and Benyamine moved in for his last 125 chips. Fitoussi bet 2,000 and the other player called.

The river was the {6-Spades} and the action went check-check in the side pot. Fitoussi mucked when he was shown {J-Clubs} {9-Spades} {4-Hearts} {10-Diamonds}, but Benyamine's {Q-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} had cheekily made a backdoor straight for a treble up.

Benyamine is back up to 12,000 with both second chance chips still left.
