Championship Day 1A: Steven Bennett Eliminated

$1,650 Winter Poker Open Championship (Re-Entry)
Level 7: 250/500/50 Ante

Steven Bennett is the most recent preliminary event winner to hit the rail. We found Bennett all in from middle position on a Jh9s4d board. An early-position player had bet 5,400 and Bennett’s shove was for 14,225. Jerry Silva called in the position and the early-position player folded. Bennett casually flipped over AdJs for top pair. Silva was best with KsKd and nothing changed on the 7s turn or the 5d river.

With that, Bennett busted joining fellow Winter Poker Open prelim winner Dean Morris on the rail.
