Benoit Caught Bluffing
Level 19
: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Van Tiep Nguyen raised to 35,000 on the button and Benjamin Benoit called in the small blind, as did Jack Sinclair in the big blind. The flop fell 
and was checked through. After the 
turn, Benoit made it 100,000 to go and Sinclair folded while Nguyen called.
The 
river completed the board and Benoit bet again, this time for 210,000. Nguyen, who had just over 400,000 behind, called and Benoit rolled over 
for a busted straight and flush draw. Nguyen showed 
for a pair of kings and that won the pot.
