High-Stakes Drama as Benyamine Outplays Pochat in $25K Super Main Event
A dramatic hand unfolded during Day 1d of the $25,000 buy-in Super Main Event. Manuel Pochat from Argentina clashed with poker veteran David Benyamine in a high-stakes showdown. The pot ultimately went to Benyamine, despite his initial reluctance to play the hand.
The action began in Level 10 when Pochat moved all-in for 255,000 from early position. Benyamine, known for his appearances on High Stakes Poker, called with ace-seven of hearts. Pochat held the stronger ace-jack of spades, putting Benyamine at risk.
Benyamine took down the pot with his flush, while Pochat’s tournament run suffered another setback. The Super Main Event continues to grow, with the prize pool climbing as late entries keep pouring in. The next rounds will determine who advances deeper into the competition.
