Bennington Lowers the Boom
Nível 26
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
As two of the shorter stacks remaining in play, Michael Bennington and and Jeffrey Hagen needed to gain some traction, and wouldn't you know it, they ended up playing an all-in pot together.
Hagen bumped it up to 100,000 from under the gun, and Bennington decided to make his stand then and there, shipping for 610,000 from the button. Hagen liked his 
enough to call, but he was in bad shape against Bennington's 
.
With it being over 85 degrees in Las Vegas at nearly midnight, it was appropriate that no snowmen could be found on the 
board. Hagen took a major hit to his stack and now has just 8 big blinds to play with, while Bennington boosted his chances.
