Cohen vs. Benefield in 1.25 Million Pot
Level 23
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
David Benefield opened for 30,000 from the hijack and Sam Cohen pushed back with a three-bet to 90,000 from the button. Action folded back to Benefield and he asked how much Cohen had started the hand with, which was roughly 625,000. Benefield thought for awhile before four-betting to 225,000 or so, and Cohen instantly moved all in. Benefield didn't seem excited but dropped in some chips nonetheless.
Cohen: 
Benefield: 
The 
flop gave both players a set, meaning had the hand played out differently the chips would more than likely have gotten in one way or another. Neither the 
turn nor 
river were the one outer Benefield was looking for, and Cohen made her way to the rail to celebrate with her supporters, which includes Tristan Wade.
