Benger Surprise

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

Griffin Benger was on the button and had called a bet of 9,000 on the flop showing {q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}. Both players checked it when the {a-Diamonds} showed up on the turn and the river card {q-Diamonds} completed the community cards.

Benger’s opponent bet out 6,000 and he raised him to 20,000. There was a pause and some chip counting before the call was eventually thrown out. Benger turned over {7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for the flush and it looked as if his opponent couldn’t quite believe or comprehend what he was seeing. It took him several seconds to release his cards face down and the chips were soon added to Benger’s stack.
