Vinicenka and Benvenga Chop Up the Dead Money
Level 38
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Jean Benvenga opened 2,000,000 under the gun, and Sylvain Berthelot called in the cutoff, followed by Martin Zamani on the button and Francesco Macri in the small blind before Stanislovas Vinicenka jammed 7,400,000 from the big blind. Only Benvenga called.
Stanislovas Vinicenka: A?Q? 
Jean Benvenga: A?Q?
Both players had the same hand and they paired their ace on the A?10?6? flop. The 4? turn was a sweat as Vinicenka picked up a flush draw, but the 3? river was a brick.
