Hellbent on Chipping Up

[user38449]

Kent Hunter from Day 1a of the main event

Aaron Benton has just moved to 165,000 in chips with the recent elimination of Kent Hunter.

Aleksander Brkovic opened the pot with a raise to 6,000 which was called by both Hunter and Benton. The flop came down {K-Hearts}

and Brkovic led out with a 10,000 continuation bet. Hunter then kicked it up to 30,000, and Benton came over the top of him, moving all in. Brkovic folded, but Hunter made the call setting up a showdown between Benton and Hunter:

Benton: {K-Clubs}

Hunter:

The turn and river filled out {10-Spades}

in favor of Benton, who stacked up 165,000 in chips after the hand. Hunter was the all-in player, and was thus eliminated from the tournament on the hand.
