Benitez Doubles Up Through Petrone

Level 9 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Francisco Benitez
Francisco Benitez

Ramiro Petrone opened for 6,000 from the cutoff and Francisco Benitez called from the big blind.

The flop came {9-Clubs}{7-Spades}{6-Hearts} and both players tapped the table.

On the {k-Clubs} turn, Benitez put in a bet and, after using a time bank chip, Petrone shoved over the top of the Uruguayan. Benitez called rather quickly and cards went on their backs.

Francisco Benitez: {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Ramiro Petrone: {k-Spades}{5-Spades}

Petrone was visibly annoyed when Benitez showed that he had also turned a king with a better kicker.

Petrone was unable to improve on the {2-Diamonds} river and Benitez stayed alive in the hunt for his third title of the series.
