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: 
Hillery Kerby: 
Kerby was racing for his stack and needed to improve to win. He took the lead on the 
flop, then the 
turn and 
river meant Kerby would take the pot playing his eight-kicker to double up.
