Benso Doubles Twice
Level 35
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
No-Limit Hold'em
After action folded to the blinds, Robert Waite, moved all in from the small blind and Sergio Benso slowly peeled his cards and then snap-called, tabling a monster.
Sergio Benso: A♠A♦
Robert Waite: K♣3♥
The runout of A♣3♠7♥8♥4♣ only improved Benso to top set and he was pushed the pot for the double.
The very next hand, it was Benso who shoved from the small blind and Alen Bakovic called from the big blind to put him at risk once again.
Sergio Benso: Q♠J♥
Alen Bakovic: 8♠8♥
Bakovic was in the lead with his pair, but the runout of 5♣3♦6♣J♣K♥ gave Benso a jack on the turn to take the pot for yet another double.
