Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

We just witnessed one of the biggest and craziest hands of the tournament as Jonas Lauck and [Removed:119] clashed in an enormous pot.

The action started with Lauck who raised under the gun to 35,000 and from the button it was Kevin Killeen who three-bet to 85,000. [Removed:119] called from the big blind and Lauck called as well.

The flop brought and almost immediately Bensadoun moved all in for around 1.3 million chips. This huge shove was called by Lauck after about two minutes while he had 633,000 chips in front of him. Killeen quickly folded and one of the biggest all-ins was upon us.

Bensadoun had flopped a set holding and he was up against Lauck's for two pair and a backdoor flush draw.

Lauck looked devastated when he looked at Bensadoun's set, but the turn gave him some hope when the popped up. On the river the hit and Lauck hit a flush that silenced the crowd and left Bensadoun in frustration.
