Event 28 - Final Table - Heads Up PLO Style!
1 year ago
Phil Galfond seems to have A-A in his hand every other deal. He has flashed it many, many times when he has raised and taken it down preflop. He picked them up again and turned the over for everyone to see.
"Phil turns over pocket aces for the 13th time. We call that running good," said the tournament director.
He might be running good but he also plays good and, with the elimination of David Benyamine, it is very clear that OMGClayAiken has more experienc at PLO for big bucks than Adam Hourani does. Add a chip advantage and Hourani definitely has his work cut out for him.
Benyamine Frenched!
Things started to go pear shaped for David Benyamine just a few minutes after the dinner break.
Sacrebleu!
Adam Hourani made it $150,000 to go from the button and David Benyamine called from the small blind. Galfond made it $600,000 to go and Hourani stepped out of the way. Benyamine thought for a bit before slipping in the call for about half of his chips!
The flop was 4

and Benyamine checked. Galfond put Benyamine all in and forced him to fold after just a few seconds of thought.
Just a few minutes later, DB made it $175,000 to go from the button and Hourani called. The flop was Q J 9. Hourani checked, Benyamine shoved, and Hourani called. A-A-T-4 for Benyamine and A-Q-Q-T for Hourani.
Benyamine was up against top set, but still had four king outs to chop with broadway and two outs to make a better set. Unfortunately for the Frenchman it wasn't meant to be. There will be no live recreation of the $200/$400 PLO games on Full Tilt where Benyamine and Galfond battle each other on a near daily basis. $316,307 for Benyamine. Vive le France!

Event 28 - Final Table - Where's The Red Carpet?
1 year ago
"This isn't the star studded we once had but let's show your appreciate and give 'em a hand," said the Tournament Director to the spectators. Sure Daniel Negreanu isn't here and Phil Hellmuth is busto, but David Benyamine, Phil Galfond, and Adam Hourani are no chopped liver. Galfond and Benyamine have made names for themselves playing the highest stakes online almost daily and Hourani has shown that he is very solid at Pot Limit Omaha.
The players are now headed off to dinner and will be returning in an hour at about 10 p.m..
Dead Man Walking
After Phil Galfond seriously outplayed Johnny Chan and relieved him of his chips, Chan suddenly found himself going from chip leader to life support in the blink of an eye.
Chan made his last stand when he raised it to $120,000 and was called by both Benyamine and Galfond. The flop came down J T 3. Benyamine fired a small bet of $65,000, representing the last of Chan's chips. Both Galfond and Chan called. The river was checked through and Chan Turned over two pair tens and eights. Benyamine tabled the dead man's hand (aces and eights) thus ending Chan's tournament life.
