Benzimra with the loot in Warsaw
Benzimra with the loot in Warsaw
Just taking his seat is another familiar face from the last EPT stop in Warsaw. A couple weeks ago, Frenchman Christophe Benzimra played over there at the Casinos Poland, and you might say he performed well. From a field of 203 runners, Benzimra charged his way to a tough final table, and he performed admirably on the final day. With solid, timely play (and a lucky set of jacks in a three-way all in), Benzimra took down the title and nearly 1.5 million PLN.

Can he become the first man to go back-to-back in the EPT?
