High stakes professionals David Benyamine and Matt “Hoss_TBF” Hawrilenko were at it against playing half Limit Hold’em and half H.O.R.S.E. with $1000/$2000 stakes over on Full Tilt Poker tables Harlin and Hatteras. The results surprisingly had Benyamine raking in over $97K during the Hold’em hands of the battle. During the other games, “AAAASEANAAAA” (-$18K) and Abe “EazyPeazy” Mosseri (-$3K) both sat in for 16 and 20 hands, respectively. With those brief interruptions included, Hawrilenko was able to finish the H.O.R.S.E. portion of the game with a solid $41K in winnings, while Benyamine lost over $20K. The final game totals showed Benyamine with a total $76K+ win and Hawrilenko with almost $56K lost after 298 total hands for both players.
