Benjamin Winsor Eliminated in 16th Place ($16,600)
Level 29
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Anton Wigg opened from early position to 200,000 and Benjamin Winsor called on the button. Dimitrios Barmpathanasis also came along from the big blind.
The trio saw a flop of 10♠6♥9♥ where Barmpathanasis checked and Wigg continued with a bet of 375,000. Winsor then made it 1,300,000, and left himself around 1,000,000 behind. Barmpathanasis quickly folded, and Wigg shoved. Winsor called off his remaining 1,000,000.
Benjamin Winsor: A♦10♦
Anton Wigg: J♣J♠
Winsor had flopped top pair but needed to play catch-up as Wigg's overpair was well in the lead. There was no need to even see a river card as the J♥ turn improved Wigg to an unbeatable set, and Winsor watched the meaningless 8♦ fill out the board.
