    David Benyamine Wins Event 37 - $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo World Championship ($535,687)

    Congratulations to David Benyamine for taking out Event 37 - $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo World Championship. David was prominent for the majority of the tournament and once Mike Matusow was removed from the final table, David completely dominated. He was an unstoppable force that the other players simply couldn't match.

    This is David's first WSOP bracelet and he also pockets a handy $535,687 for his efforts.

    Congratulations David Benyamine!

    Greg Jamison Eliminated in 2nd Place ($331,350); David Benyamine Wins!

    David Benyamine raised it up from the button and Greg Jamison reraised for the last of his chips. Benyamine made the call.

    Jamison: {Q-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{2-Spades}
    Benyamine: {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{3-Hearts}

    The flop arrived {9-Spades}{J-Spades}{10-Diamonds} to give Jamison the nuts with the straight but Benyamine had flopped a set of tens.

    Calls from the rail to pair the board were answered when the {J-Hearts} landed on the turn to give Benyamine a full house and a lock in the hand.

    The {3-Diamonds} fell on the river and David Benyamine is our champion!

    Greg Jamison is eliminated after a wonderful tournament in 2nd place for $331,350

    Jamison Crippled

    Greg Jamison was just crippled in a hand that was two bet preflop and bet every street until the river. On the river Benyamine bet out and Jamison folded.

    After the hand Jamison is down to 160,000.

    Jamison Doubles Up Twice

    Jamison was all in preflop for 180,000. Benyamine called.

    Benyamine: {A-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {9-Spades} {6-Hearts}
    Jamison: {K-Spades} {7-Clubs} {K-Clubs} {10-Diamonds}

    Board: {K-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {5-Clubs} {A-Clubs} {6-Clubs}

    The next hand Jamison is all in again:

    Jamison: {6-Hearts} {6-Spades} {A-Clubs} {10-Spades}
    Benyamine: {K-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} {7-Spades}

    Board: {6-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {K-Spades} {5-Spades}

    After the two double up, Jamison is up to 520,000 chips.

    Benyamine Dominating

    In a series of recent pots David Benyamine has been able to dismantle Greg Jamison one pot at a time. Benyamine has chipped away in a series of small pots where he has taken most of them down without a showdown. In the hands that went to showdown Benyamine is showing the goods.

    Jamison is down to under 300,000. This one could be all over very shortly.

    Trend So Far

    So far David Benyamine has been winning 75% of all the hands heads up. Most of the pots are being taken down on the flop, but he just took a pot down with kings up to move to over 4,000,000 in chips.

    Big Advantage For Benyamine

    Updated Chip Counts

    David Benyamine - 4,150,000
    Greg Jamison - 550,000

    Bad Mojo?

    Although the chips and cards seem to have been drawn to David Benyamine like a magnet, Greg Jamison has just decided to move away from the eight-seat that was next to Benyamine, to the other end of the table in the two-seat for a more traditional heads up play atmosphere.

    Will the change of scene make all the difference?
