Saul Gets Maximum Value with Full House
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Action was picked up on the river with around 150,000 in the middle in a hand between Fabian Rolli from under the gun, Henri Benoni from the button, and "Saul" from the big blind.
With the board reading A♦7♠4♠4♣4♥, Saul checked to Rolli who bet 100,000. Benoni called on the button before Saul check-raised to 450,000. Rolli thought about it for a minute before he folded. Then, Benoni went into the tank. He deliberated for over three minutes before the clock was called. With two seconds left, he flicked in the call for 380,000 and the hands were revealed.
Henri Benoni: J♥10♥ 
"Saul": A♥8♣
Benoni did not believe Saul and he paid the price as he hit the rail in a massive pot that propelled Saul towards the top of the leaderboard.
