"I Told You I Was Gonna Win This One"

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Alex Benjamen raised to 85,000 from middle position and the player on the button called. Victor Figueroa was in the small blind and moved all in for 485,000. Benjamen asked the button how much he had behind and eventually moved all in for about two million. The button folded.

Figueroa was at risk and well ahead with {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades} and Benjamen tabled a dominated {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}. "I have a good feeling about this hand," said Benjamen.

The flop came {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{9-Spades} and Figueroa was still ahead with ace high. "Jack!" yelled Benjamen. Sure enough, the {j-Clubs} hit the turn and Benjamen made a straight. The dealer put out the {3-Hearts} on the river and Benjamen said, "I told you I was gonna win this one." Figueroa simply smiled and headed to the payout desk.
