Laugt Claims Another Scalp
Level 8
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Action was picked up on the turn in a three-bet pot with around 35,000 in the middle in a hand between Henri Benoni from early position and Quentin Laugt from the hijack.
With the board reading, 6?3?2?2?, Benoni checked to Laugt who continued for 25,000. Benoni responded with a check-jam for 110,000 and Laugt snapped it off.
Henri Benoni: J?J? 
Quentin Laugt: K?K?
It was a cooler situation with Laugt having the better overpair and it stayed that way on the 10? river as Laugt has risen to become the largest stack in the room before dinner.
