Benyamine Keeps Losing

The pile of chips in front of David Benyamine consists of no more than a few chips. Thinking we made a mistake counting after he folded the second nut flush we asked him if his count was correct. Benyamine told us he lost a huge 20,000-chip pot after the folded flush with aces against ace-jack. The chips went into the pot on a {K-}{10-}{7-} flop and the Frenchman got very unlucky on either the turn or the river.

David Benyamine only has 2,100 chips left behind and has a lot of ground to cover before he's back in the race.

Williams Cracks Queens with Top Set

David Williams is up to about 27,000 in chips after just busting a player. All of the money went in on the {6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop with Williams holding top set with the {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}. His opponent had an overpair to the board with the {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}.

The turn was the {10-Hearts} and river the {8-Diamonds}. Both of those kept Williams in front and earned him the pot.

Rousso Knocked Back

After her opponent bet 1,600 on the {J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} flop, Vanessa Rousso raised to 3,200. Her opponent came back with a reraise to 10,600 and that sent Rousso into the tank. She thought for a bit and even began talking out loud to herself, mumbling about how she felt her opponent held ace-jack. Eventually, she mucked her hand and allowed her stack to take the hit.

Selbst and Ascabi Having Fun

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante
Vanessa Selbst Now Up To 21,000
Vanessa Selbst Now Up To 21,000

Daniel Negreanu joined the table of Vanessa Selbst just before dinner, but it is Luca Ascabi who seems to want to tango with Selbst. The two of them exchanged several hands just before dinner with Ascabi seemingly getting the better cards. We just joined the action on a flop of {Q-Spades} {3-Clubs} {2-Clubs} and Selbst had checked out of the small blind and Ascabi had bet 1,025 from the cut-off. Selbst studied her opponent before check-raising to 2,600. Ascabi made facial expressions pertinent to a man with a weasel down his pants before making the call. The turn was the {8-Hearts} and Selbst, with a stack size of 14,600, bet 3,600 and Ascabi tank-folded.
