Three Crabs for Cohen

Aaron Benton opened to 1,200 and was instantly met with an all in from Julian Cohen next to act for his last 8,025.

The remaining active players folded, and Benton made the call.

Cohen: {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}
Benton: {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}

With Cohen in bad shape, and already with one foot out the door, the {4-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades} gave both players a funky backdoor straight draw until Cohen spiked the {3-Hearts} on the turn to take the lead.

Benton was unable to improve to a straight or a bigger set as the river landed the {k-Diamonds} to ensure Cohen the double to 16,500 as Benton slips to 57,300.
