Benyamine Chops

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

Martin Rowe raised to 525 from under the gun and David Benyamine called from the button. The big blind also called and the flop came down {Q-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}. Action checked around and the turn brought the {8-Clubs}. After the big blind led out for 1,200, Rowe folded and Benyamine called.

The river completed the board with the {4-Diamonds} and both players checked. Both players then tabled {A-}{8-} and chopped up the pot.

Unfortunately for Benyamine, he wouldn't be winning this one and is stuck on a shorter stack of 8,000 chips.
