David Benyamine completed and Bryce Yockey raised. Jeremy Ausmus called as did Benyamine to send action three-way to fourth street.

Benyamine led out on fourth street, receiving two calls.

Yockey took over the betting lead on fifth street but none of the three players was willing to give up on the hand just yet as both Benyamine and Ausmus flatted.

It was Ausmus' turn to bet on sixth street. Again, Benyamine and Yockey called.

Despite the large pot in the middle, Benyamine was not willing to go to a cheap showdown after action checked to him on the river, instead cutting out another bet. Yockey got out of the way but Ausmus called. Benyamine tabled his hand, revealing the ace high flush to scoop a massive pot just before the second break of the day.
