Benn On The Upside

As far as we can tell, Benn Skender is the first player to crack a 200,000 chip stack. The latest hand that saw Skender shoot to around 230,000 began when a player from under the gun opened to 2,500. The player on their left called and it was on to Phi Luu on the button, who three-bet to 6,500. Skender was in the big blind and cold four-bet to 20,000. The two other players got out of the way and the action was sent back around to Luu. After just a few moments, Luu four-bet to 46,500 - leaving himself with around 75,000 behind.

At this point, Skender shoved all in. Luu tanked and then opted to fold, with Skender picking up the very nice pot.
