Stud Hi-Lo
David Benyamine: XxXx / 8♣3♠K♣A♥ / Xx
Viktor Blom: 10♣8♠5♥ / 2♠6♦4♦7♠
Viktor Blom bet all the way from fourth street and David Benyamine called to get shown an eight-high straight and seven low to scoop the entire pot.
Jason Mercier: A♣7♥ / A♦6♣A♥2♦ / 6♥
David Benyamine: A♠4♣ / 5♠10♥3♣2♣ / 10♠
Shortly after, Jason Mercier was all-in against Benyamine with trips aces. Benyamine had spiked the wheel and nut low on sixth to leave Mercier on the ropes, but he caught a six on seventh to improve to a full house.
"Man, this is a tough table, you gotta hit a full house just to chop," Mercier gritted.
