Benyamine vs. Ivey; Pros Play $2K/$4K H.O.R.S.E. Round IV

SocialTwist Tell-a-Friend

For the fourth time in five days, the high stakes Frenchman and the Tiger Woods of poker met up on Full Tilt Poker table Ivey Glue Factory to continue their ongoing $2000/$4000 H.O.R.S.E. battle. Their match lasted a little under two and a half hours this time as Benyamine took down seven of the top eight hands of the game. Picking up almost $106K during the Omaha Hi/Lo hands, Benyamine was able to rake in over $26K in winnings before Ivey left the table after 266 hands.

Looking at the overall results after four rounds of games, both players are tied with two wins a piece. Both players have managed to book a small win and a large win, but it is Ivey who holds the all-inclusive lead at the moment. With 3,072 total hands in the books, Ivey’s domination in Limit Hold’em ($317K+) has him with a small $45K+ lead over Benyamine.
