Benyamine Doubles with Two Pair

The players may be on the bubble of the $25,000 High Roller Freeze-Out, but that hasn't stopped the big pots from being player. These guys are all seasoned in the game of poker and although bubbling sucks, it's not going to make them back down.

Jon Turner raised to 18,000 and David Benyamine called in position. The flop came down {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}{9-Spades} and Turner fired 21,000. Benyamine raised to 69,000 and then Turner reraised. Benyamine moved all in and Turner made the call. Benyamine was all in for 258,000 total with the {K-Clubs}{9-Spades}. Turner held the {8-Spades}{6-Spades} for a flush draw.

The turn brought the {A-Hearts} and the river the {Q-Clubs}. Benyamine's hand held and he doubled to about 560,000 chips. Turner dropped to around 185,000.
