Ben Soussan Cracks Kings Near the Bubble
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Jonathan Ben Soussan raised to 8,000 in middle position before Jerry Odeen three-bet to 15,000 in the hijack. Ben Soussan called, leaving himself just 14,000 behind.
Both players checked the A?3?5? flop before the 9? fell on the turn. Ben Soussan then bet his last chips. "It's a bluff," Ben Soussan said as Odeen began tanking.
"I didn't think I would have a decision to make," Odeen said, but he eventually called.
Odeen showed K?K?, but Ben Soussan had A?2? for top pair. The river was the 8? and Ben Soussan doubled up.
