Benyamine Pulls in a Big One

Level 15 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

With at least 30,000 already in the pot, David Benyamine and Alex Foxen arrived at the river on a {5-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{j-Spades}{q-Diamonds} runout. Whatever action led up to the big pot came to a halt in the final betting round, as Foxen checked from the small blind. Benyamine looked like he was thinking about putting in one more bet, but decided to check back.

Benyamine took the pot, showing {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for the king-high straight.

Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo

With the board reading {q-Spades}{3-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{5-Spades}{2-Spades}, Danny Noam put in a 15,000-chip bet on the river, and Jonathan Depa made the call.

Level 15 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo

On a turn reading {j-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}, David Williams and David Benyamine got their chips in with Williams at risk.

Williams: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{j-Spades}{6-Clubs}
Benyamine: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}

Williams asked the dealer to wait a few seconds so he could get his phone ready. He started recording as the dealer rolled out the {9-Hearts} river, filling Benyamine's flush draw.

Williams exited and he was followed by Hye Park shortly thereafter, bringing the remaining field to 24 players.

Big Stacks Collide

Level 15 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

Loren Klein and Jonathan Depa both sit at around 200,000 chips, with Depa taking down some of Klein's pile in a PLO pot.

With the flop showing {9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, Depa checked from the big blind, and Klein fired out for 13,000 from the button. Depa put in the check-raise and bet pot, making it 59,000 total, with about 120,000 chips behind.

Klein tanked for a few moments before folding, asking Depa to show a card. Depa obliged, turning over the {j-Diamonds}.

Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

With action caught following the first draw, Arthur Morris fired 15,000 into 17,000 from the small blind. David "Bakes" Baker potted for 62,000 from the cutoff, and Morris paused for a while. He asked how much did Baker have behind and Baker counted his exact remaining stack at 63,700.

After over a minute, Morris jammed and Baker snap-called.

Morris stood pat, Baker drew one and he still needed one on the final draw.

"Eight-seven perfect," Morris announced, rolling over {8-}{7-}{4-}{3-}{2-}. Baker opened {7-}{5-}{4-}{2-}, drawing to a wheel. He peeled an {8-}, however, and that wasn't enough.

Morris dragged the gigantic pot while Baker was headed to the payouts. Morris is now an overwhelming chip leader with around 385,000.

David Benyamine is closing in on the 300k mark in chips. Benyamine fired a 25,000 bet into Scott Bohlman on the turn of a {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Hearts} board, and Bohlman made the call, putting the pot at about 70,000.

The action checked through on the river, and Benyamine showed {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, taking down the pot with the pair of jacks. Bohlman took a long look at his cards before finally mucking, and the defending champion in this event is down to 100,000.
