Jarrad Godema and Gary Benson Eliminated

Level 11 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante
Gary Benson
Gary Benson

Under the gun plus one, Jarrad Godema raised to 7,000 with about 9,000 behind. Raj Ramakrishnan called from middle position and big blind Gary Benson called all in for 6,400 and revealed his cards. He was corrected by the dealer and instantly grabbed his cards back but most had seen by then.

With 1,200 in the side pot, the flop came {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{2-Spades}. Godema shoved all in and Ramakrishnan instantly called.

Jarrad Godema: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Gary Benson: {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Raj Ramakrishnan: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}

Benson was well in front and Godema was the favorite for the side pot, but that would all change. The {Q-Clubs} on the turn didn't do much just yet but the {9-Clubs} on the river sure did.

"Nine of clubs?!" Benson said.

As Ramakrishnan collected the chips, Benson continued; "That sucked!"

Two players hit the rail and, just like that, the tournament is in the money with only seven players remaining. They're guaranteed AUD$18,330 from here on out.
