Level 13 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Just before break Benjamin Dobson moved among the top stacks in the room, and he did so by eliminated Simon Charette in stunning fashion.

Preflop, Dobson made a three bet to 8200. On the button Charette made a four nd to bet to 15,900. Action folded back around to Dobson who moved all in after about a minute of thinking. Charette didn't take long to make the call.

Dobson: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Charette: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}

The flop was good for Charette when it fell {7-Hearts}{J-Spades}{J-Clubs} leaving Dobson drawing to a {10-} or runner runner outs. The turn was the {9-Diamonds} though, giving Dobson some of those runner runner outs. The river completed that draw when it fell the {8-Hearts} eliminating Charette from the tournament.

Dobson is now well over 100,000 chips and looks to be one of the leaders in the room.
