Smit Fills up to Bust Benson

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

William Benson opened to 35,000 and was called by Werner Smit in the big blind.

Smit checked to Benson, who continued for 20,000 on the 9♠J♣A♣ flop. Smit then put in a pot-sized check-raise and Benson called all-in for his remaining stack.

William Benson: A♥J♥10♣8♣All in
Werner Smit: J♦9♣9♥7♥

Both players had flopped big, but Smit had the best of it with his set of nines.

The K♣ turn improved Benson to a flush for the lead, but the K♠ river left Smit best with a full house for the elimination.
