Big Pot for Benitez

Sava Krink
Sava Krink
Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Francisco Benitez bet 4,000 on a J♠3♣10♥ flop and was called by Maher Achour from the cutoff, with 5,000 already in the pot.

Another 8,000 bet came from Benitez on the 6♦ turn, with Achour calling after some hesitation.

Benitez took the lead once more on the K♦ river, betting 30,000, which represented an all-in for Achour, who had only 15,400 left. Achour's discontent was evident from his expression, and after a prolonged period of thought, he reluctantly folded.
