Kerby Doubles Through Benjamen

Level 23 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Action folded around to the blinds, Alex Benjamen raised from the small, Hillery Kerby jammed from the big for 125,000, and Benjamen called to put him at risk.

Alex Benjamen: {2-Spades}{2-Hearts}
Hillery Kerby: {8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}

Kerby was racing for his stack and needed to improve to win. He took the lead on the {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop, then the {K-Clubs} turn and {A-Hearts} river meant Kerby would take the pot playing his eight-kicker to double up.
