Uibo Doubles Through Benoni in Dramatic Fashion
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Hendrik Uibo opened to 10,000 from early position before Henri Benoni three-bet to 30,000 from the hijack, and Uibo called.
On the 10?9?3? flop, Uibo checked to Benoni who continued for 24,000 and Benoni put in the call.
The turn brought the 7?. Benoni opted to jam for 138,000 effective as the covering stack. Uibo sighed as he called it off.
Hendrik Uibo: A?10?
Henri Benoni: K?K?
Uibo found himself in rough shape with top pair against the overpair of Benoni. However, he still had five outs to improve. The dealer peeled the 10? on the river to give Uibo the winner as he jumped out of his chair in celebration.
