Altbregin and Benyamine Carve Up Morgan

David Benyamine limped into the pot pre-flop in front of Jordan Morgan, who raised. Sergey Altbregin had the button and called two bets cold. Benyamine closed the action with a call of his own.

All three players checked a paired, two-spade flop, {10-Spades} {4-Spades} {4-Diamonds}. Benyamine checked again on the {7-Diamonds} turn. That led Morgan to try a bet. Altbregin raised and then Benyamine check-re-raised. Morgan quickly called; Altbregin needed more time before putting his own call in.

The river was the {2-Spades}. Action checked to Altbregin. He quickly fired a bet that only Benyamine called. The two chopped the pot, Benyamine getting the high with three fours, {a-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} {j-Clubs}, Altbregin taking the low with {a-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {j-Diamonds}.

"How did you survive that river?" Matt Glantz asked Benyamine.

"I didn't think he had spades. Check-check on the flop. I thought diamonds," Benyamine replied.

"Seven," said Altbregin.

"Yes, I thought you must have a seven to make that raise," Benyamine added.
