Benger Takes a Chunk From Gates

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Garry Gates opened the action in early position to 32,000, and Griffin Benger called from the small blind. Both players checked the {q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop, and the turn brought the {3-Clubs}. Benger fired out 48,000, and Gates raised it up to 110,000. Benger made the call, and both players checked the scary looking {a-Clubs} on the river.

Benger tabled {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs} for top two pair, and Gates said "nice hand" before mucking his cards.
