A Little Mistake
A player under the gun opened to 1,600, and he was called by both Jonathan Little (late position) and Mike Bennington (small blind). They three saw a flop, and the raiser continued out with another 2,700 chips. Little called, and Bennington check-raised to 10,000 straight. The raiser flatted now, and Little responded with an all-in shove, shipping his last 28,000 across the line. Bennington called, and that finally shook the under-the-gun player loose as he double-checked his cards and threw them into the muck.
Little was at risk with the mighty , and he was in a big hole as Bennington tabled for top and bottom pairs. The turn gave Little some outs, but the river was a blank, cueing his exit just before the end of the night.
