: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Bruno Benveniste opened to 20,000 on the button, and Frank Lagodich defended his big blind.
The 5♦J♦Q♠ flop checked through, but sparks flew when the dealer put out the 8♠ turn. Lagodich checked again, Beneviste bet out for 40,000, before Lagodich announced "pot," which was enough to put Beneviste all in.
"Are you freerolling me?" asked Lagodich as Beneviste snapped.
Bruno Benveniste: K♣J♣10♥9♣
Frank Lagodich: A♣10♦9♦7♦
They both had the queen-high straight and the current nuts, and both had draws to higher straights. Lagodich had diamonds for the flush draw, making him a slight favorite, but the 2♠ river resulted in a chop.
