Kaarstad Kicks Benchea to the Rail
Level 9
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Petter Kaarstad opened to 2,000 from under the gun and Adam Martinsson called on his left. Next to act was Alexandru Benchea who made it 12,000 to go. The action folded back to Kaarstad who shipped all in and Martinsson quickly folded. Benchea thought for a minute but eventually called off his stack of around 37,000.
Petter Kaarstad: 
Alexandru Benchea: 
Kaarstad was in a dominating position and the flop of 
didn't change anything. The 
on the turn left Benchea with just three outs and the 
on the river was not one of them.
