Benger Booms a Double
Level 15
: 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Griffin Benger opened for a raise in middle position, James Copher called in the hijack, and Sam Stein three-bet to 16,700 in the cutoff. Benger moved all in for 84,100, Copher folded, and Stein sigh-called.
Benger: 
Stein: 
It was Benger who sighed when the flop fell 
, and he was standing and ready to leave when the 
turned. Benger was saved when the 
spiked on the river however, and gave a hearty fist pump at the site of the man with the ax.
The Canadian doubled to 170,000 chips, while Stein slipped to 48,000.
