Benyamine Loses Some

Level 1 : 50/75, 0 ante

A player on the button made it 150 preflop and was called by the small blind and David Benyamine in the big. The flop fell {10-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}. The small blind and Benyamine checked and the button continued out for 300. The small blind folded and Benyamine made the call.

The turn came {8-Diamonds} and Benyamine checked once again and the button fired out 600 this time. Benyamine called once again and the river fell {2-Clubs}. Benyamine checked a third time and the button bet 1,600. Benyamine sent his cards into the muck, losing a bit to his opponent.
