We picked up the action on a flop of {J-Clubs}

. In a heads-up pot, Tom Koral fired out 160,000 chips, and Wayne Bentley moved all in for 550,000 total. In a blink, Koral called with his covering stack, and the cards were turned up.

Showdown
Koral: {A-Spades}

Bentley:

Bentley was trailing with his naked pair of tens, and he'd need to catch a card to stay alive and double up. He ended up with two pair, but the turn and river {6-Spades}

and

made Koral the winning aces up. Bentley parlayed his monstrous Day 1 chip lead into a remarkable deep run this week, but his efforts have fallen short in 16th place.

Gloria Balding had a nice long chat with Mr. Bentley yesterday; we think you might enjoy this video as a parting gift:
