Benhamron on Right Side of Cooler

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 0 ante

Eric Benhamron opened from middle position before the button made it 1,100. The small blind called, and Matthias De Clercq did the same from the big blind.

Benhamron then four-bet to 5,500, prompting the button to click to 13,600. The small blind, unaware of the five-bet, put in 5,500, which he then surrendered. De Clerq also folded.

Benhamron then moved all in for 29,100 and was snap-called by the button with a slightly bigger stack.

Eric Benhamron: A?A?
Button: A?K?

The button had a gutshot to Brodway following the J?10?2? flop and picked up some extra outs on the K? turn. The 7? river was a brick, and Benhamron scooped an early double.
