Benvenuto Loses Back to Back Pots

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 500 ante

There is certainly not a dull moment when Gianluca Benvenuto is in the action. He just made a standard raise from under the gun when Rupert Elder three-bet from the button with a bet of 46,000. The blinds mucked their cards and Benvenuto four-bet to 120,000. Elder, who recently cashed in EPT Berlin as well now in EPT San Remo five-bet jammed. Benvenuto asked for a count and it was 344,000 and he folded his hand.

Then in the next hand he was responsible for doubling up former EPT champion Carter Phillips. Phillips made a raise with {7-Clubs} {7-Hearts} and Benvenuto decided to move Phillips all-in when it folded round to him in the big blind. Phillips was expecting it and he made the call. Benvenuto was holding {a-Clubs} {9-Spades}, the board remained free of both digits and Phillips moved up to 132,000
