Benyamine Takes One From Dolan

David Benyamine raised to 550 in the hijack and John Dolan re-raised to 1,600 in the cutoff. Action folded back to Benyamine and he called, leading to a {J-Clubs}{10-Spades}{2-Spades} flop.

Benyamine checked and Dolan bet 2,000. After a short while thinking about his options, Benyamine went all in for a hefty raise amount of just over 29,000. As Dolan thought it over and got into a friendly coversation with his opponent, Benyamine remarked, "Good thing I have this," holding up his rebuy chip. Dolan chuckled, giving up his hand and surrendering the pot.

Benyamine showed {A-Spades}{K-Spades} for the big draw as he collected the chips.

Benyamine: Up to about 34,000
Dolan: Down to about 68,500
