Benko's Quads Take a Bite Out of Lau
Level 23
: 12,000/24,000, 0 ante
Ka Lau opened on the button, and Michael Benko called from the big blind.
Benko check-raised the flop against Lau's 60,000 continuation bet, making it 225,000 total to go. Lau called, and both players checked the turn.
Benko put 400,000 in on the river, and Lau thought it over for awhile before calling. Benko tabled for turned quad queens and took down the pot.
