Charlemagne Benjamin

Jake Schwartz opened to 1,400 in early position, and Charlemagne Benjamin three-bet to 4,000 on the button. Schwartz four-bet shoved for 22,050 effective, and Benjamin called all in for that amount to put himself at risk.

Schwartz: Kd8d
Benjamin: QsQc

“Well, I got an over,” Schwartz tried to find the silver lining. He had much more than that after the Td7d6c flop, picking up straight and flush draws with two cards to come. That’s as close as he’d get, though. The Ah turn and 8c river completed the board safely for Benjamin, and he doubled up with his pair of queens.

Schwartz was left with just 1,450 chips after paying off the debt, and he was eliminated one hand later.

Charlemagne Benjamin – 45,600 (76 bb)
Jake Schwartz – Eliminated
