Benson Let's It Go

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 100 ante

A recent hand saw Tom Middleton open the action to 3,500. The play then flew around to Adam Cusenza who popped it 8,500. Gary Benson was in the big blind and made the call, while Middleton got out of the way.

Flop: {k-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

On the flop, Benson led for 8,000 which led Cusenza to push his stack all in. Benson thought for several moments before slowly sliding his cards into the muck.

Nice, Neilson

Daniel Neilson is steadily growing a nice chip stack and we caught a recent hand which added to his chip count.

We came to the action with a flop showing {7-Spades}{q-Spades}{6-Clubs} and Neilson in the hand against one opponent. Neilson was first to act and led for 3,200. Neilson's opponent then popped it to 8,000. After thinking for some time, Neilson looked towards his opponent and uttered the words, "all-in". Cards were flung into the muck and Neilson took down the pot.
