William Benson moved all in for 695,000 and Richard Leger called from the small blind.

Leger showed 7h7s and was flipping with Benson’s Ah9h. The flop was 8h7d3h and Leger flopped a set of sevens against Benson’s nut flush draw.

The turn was the Ks, keeping Leger in the lead, and the river was the As. Benson made top pair, but can’t top Leger’s set. Benson was eliminated in fifth place and netted $154,585 for his final table appearance.

Leger has a slight chip lead over the field with Chino Rheem right on his heels after the pot.

Richard Leger – 4,770,000 (95 bb)
