Benton Shows Queens

Aaron Benton and Ernst Hermans have played back at each other several times throughout the first level of play.

In a recent hand, Hermans opened with a raise to 100,000 from under-the-gun plus one and action folded around the table to Benton in the big blind who three-bet to 300,000. Hermans laid down his hand, but not without Benton stirring things up a little:

"Last hand I'm going to show ({Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}). I'm not going to make the mistake of not three-betting you again."
