Bennis Bluffs the River

Level 30 : 50,000/100,000, 15,000 ante

Julien Robert was involved in a heads-up pot between him and Najib Bennis. Bennis sat in the big blind while Robert sat in the under-the-gun position.

The complete board was {5-Clubs}{7-Spades}{4-Hearts}{J-Spades}{Q-Spades} and the pot had about 1,000,000 in it. Bennis pushed all in on the river for 2,015,000 and the decision was in Robert his hands.

He tanked for a couple of minutes and Sonny Franco ran back to the table when Robert folded and said Bennis had to show the bluff. Bennis seemed a little hesitant but eventually tabled {A-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}.

Robert punched the table in disbelief while Bennis collected the pot.
