Mark Bennett had opened in early position only to be faced with a three-bet jam from Turlough McHugh of 59,000. Bennett, who slightly covered McHugh, quickly made the call.
Turlough McHugh: A?5?
Mark Bennett: A?A?
McHugh was in trouble against Bennett's aces, but the 9?2?3? flop brought plenty of extra equity as McHugh now had flush and straight draws, giving Bennett a sweat.
However any hope was quickly extinguished by the J? turn and J? river, sending McHugh to the rail.
