David Benyamine Won Another Battle!

I suppose from the title you may have guessed who are we going to talk about today. Exactly, David Benyamine, a true online poker professional.This time he ended up winning a $86,000,000 pot from player called mastrblastr.

Seems odd, that David Benyamine found his another willing to take risk person to play with. As I suppose, not all players are willing to take risk and play with this huge poker fish. Recently, after winning a record breaking major pot, he was still hunting for others, willing to feel his rampage, until he found another victim and BAM he won $86k of him. I guess soon enough many will call him poker killer, as he is seriously killing someones pockets.

Another good fact for David was that mastrblastr was an aggressive player how he was. And you know what happends when two aggressive high stakes poker players meet in heads up? Right, epic battle between. Okay, I’ll stop teasing you now from here.
