A Big Double for Benoit
Level 12
: 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Anatoly Filatov raised to 7,000 and Andreas Eiler three-bet to 18,000 from the button. Benjamin Benoit in the small blind clicked it up to 36,500 and Filatov quickly folded. Eiler moved all in and Benoit tossed in a single chip for the call, and Eiler said "good luck" before both players bumped fists.
Benjamin Benoit: 
Andreas Eiler: 
The flop of 
changed nothing much, but Benoit didn't want to see a queen now. Both the 
turn and the 
river were blanks and Benoit doubled for 163,300.
