Bad Beat Busts Benger

Level 14 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Griffin Benger's stack had shrunk to less than 10 big blinds and shoved preflop from middle position. Action folded around to Maurizio Lo Russo in the big blind and he called to put Benger at risk.

Benger: {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Lo Russo: {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}

Benger was racing for his tournament life and flopped huge as the dealer fanned out {6-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}. The turn, however, was the {7-Diamonds} giving Lo Russo a set and a brick {q-Diamonds} on the river spelled the end for Benger.
