Champlin Emerges as One of the Leaders

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

Five players limped into the pot, including Benny Champlin in the big blind.

The flop came {6-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}, and the hijack bet. Only Champlin called after initially checking from the blinds. Champlin checked dark before the {10-Spades} dropped on the turn. His opponent tossed out 3,000. Champlin called. The {q-Diamonds} completed the board, and Champlin bet 6,500. His opponent thought for a minute, then moved all in for 10,000. Champlin called.

"King," said the hijack before tabling {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}. Champlin then rolled over his {q-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and took down the pot with two pair.

"I'm ready to go home," said the hijack before gathering his belongings and exiting the tournament floor.

"I said I'd get him back," added Champlin following the hand, stacking up his chips.
