Great Call Brings Benger near the top
Level 19
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
From under the gun, Mustapha Kanit raised to 24,000 and Griffin Benger called in the big blind. On the 
flop, the Canadian check-called 26,000. Kanit continued with the second barrel on the 
turn for 62,000 and Benger did check call once again.
With the 
on the river, Benger checked and had about 370,000 chips behind. Kanit grabbed chips and made it 165,000 to go. Almost half of the stack for his opponent and that obviously needed some consideration.
Ultimately, Benger made the call and it was a great one with the 
. Kanit showed 
as last aggressor and dwindled to about half a million.
