Benson Flush with Chips
Level 5
: 100/200, 0 ante
Gary Benson, who survived the Day 1a field with 14,400, is back in action looking to accumulate some more chips to take into Day 2.
In a recent hand, a player in middle position opened for 700 and Benson called from the cutoff. Another player called from the big blind, and three players took a flop of 
. The big blind wasted little time in moving all in for 2,400, the original raiser folded, and Benson made a quick call.
Benson: 
Big Blind: 
The big blind was ahead with top pair, but Benson had flopped the nut flush draw. The 
turn didn't complete it, but the 
river did. Benson collected the post and is up to 12,000, not too far off what he bagged last night.
