Four Times the Action

Four players just became involved in a fairly sizable pot at table 31.

Jan Suchanek opens by completing the bring-in, showing the {5-Hearts}

. Howard Lederer raises it up with the {8-Clubs}

in the door. David Benyamine and Jeff Burdsall come along as well.

Lederer: (X) (X) {8-Clubs}

(X)
Benyamine: (X) (X) {10-Diamonds}

(X)
Burdsall: (X) (X) {2-Diamonds}

(X)
Suchanek: (X) (X) {5-Hearts}

FOLD

We pick it up on fourth street. Lederer leads out, Benyamine raises, Burdsall calls all in, Suchanek overcalls, and Lederer puts out the second bet as well.

On fifth street, Lederer leads out again, Benyamine flat calls, and Suchanek folds. Burdsall is already all in.

Sixth and seventh street see Lederer betting again, and Benyamine calling both times. The hands are shown down:

Lederer: {8-Clubs}

(

)
Benyamine: {10-Diamonds}

(MUCK)
Burdsall: {2-Diamonds}

(

)

Howard Lederer takes the high half and the side pot with his eights full of threes. Burdsall takes the low with his seven-five. Benyamine is upset with the results, saying that he held three kings. After the dust settles, Lederer is up to 105,000, Burdsall is healthy again at 32,000, and Benyamine has fallen all the way back to 48,000.
