Mokry Puts Benoit Under Pressure
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Karel Mokry opened to 18,000 in middle position. Benjamin Benoit three-bet to 46,000 from the cutoff. Back on Mokry, the Czech cut out a four-bet to 95,000 and Benoit called in position.
The flop was 
and Mokry continued his aggression with a bet of 90,000, which got called by Benoit. On the 
turn, Mokry slid his T-100,000 chips in the middle, enough to put Benoit to the test for his final 260,000.
The Frenchman was visibly disgusted and needed minutes to come to a decision. After nearly four minutes, Benoit exhaled deeply and flung his cards into the muck. The 
fell open on the felt, the other one landed face-down.
Mokry now holds one of the biggest stacks in the room.
