Wieckenberg Survives, Bensimhon Rattled by Ko
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Jan Wieckenberg was all-in and at risk against big-stacked David Dongwoo Ko for his stack of around 65,000.
Jan Wieckenberg: A♥10♦ 
David Dongwoo Ko: K♥Q♥
Both caught a piece of the Q♦A♦J♥ flop but it was Wieckenberg's pair of aces that was in the lead, and it stayed that way after the 5♦ hit the turn. Wieckenberg managed to survive as the 7♠ on the river earned him a double-up.
Eyal Bensimhon sits on the same table and had some questions for PokerNews during the hand.
"Do you know this guy? If you don't recognize him, this is good for me," in reference to Ko.
"He plays so fast, I can't keep up," Bensimhon added.
