Level 15 : 4,000/8,000, 500 ante
Michael Benton tripled then doubled up.
Michael Benton tripled then doubled up.

Michael Benton moved all in under the gun for 19,500 and got called in two spots. After a {7-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{9-Spades} runout, he couldn't roll over his {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds} fast enough, while Daniel Holmes showed {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} for top pair.

A few hands later, he called a min-raise out of the big blind from Seville Hale, and he open shoved the {4-Clubs}{7-Spades}{2-Hearts} flop. Hale called immediately with {4-Spades}{2-Spades} for bottom two, and Benton showed {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} for an overpair. He turned Hale dead when the {8-Spades} hit the board, and a {10-Hearts} finished out the hand.
