In a battle of the blinds, Yann Dion raised to 7,000 and Griffin Benger in the big blind three-bet to 19,000. Call from the fellow Canadian. On the 
flop Benger called 21,000 and did so again on the 
turn for 28,000.
Dion then checked the 
river and Benger tanked. He bet enough to put his opponent all in and Dion tank called with the 
only to see his opponent flip over the 
. Jason Lavallee inquired about the play and Benger jokingly told him "I almost checked back the river because of the flush. But I had the ace of diamonds."
One hand later he limped the small blind against Dmitry Yurasov. The Russian raised and then called two barrels on the 
board. The Russian fired a third barrel for 56,500 and that was enough for Benger to tank fold.
