An Orbit with FTP Ambassador Ben Jenkins
Ben Jenkins, who has been playing professionally since 2009 with career highlights including a chop of PokerStars Sunday Warm-Up and a number of significant final table appearances, was recently name an ambassador for Full Tilt Poker, so we thought it'd be worthwhile to spend time with the dapper dresser.
We decided to do an entire orbit with the pro, who was sitting with around 14,000 at the time. Here's what we witnessed:
Hand #1 (UTG +1): The under-the-gun player folded and Jenkins did the same.
Hand #2 (Under the Gun): Jenkins was first to act and folded.
Hand #3 (Big Blind): Action folded to the small blind who raised. Jenkins folded.
Hand #4 (Small Blind): Action folded to Jenkins and he put in a raise to 800, which Simone Srtookman defended from the big. When the flop came down , Jenkins continued for 900 and Srtookman folded.
Hand #5 (Button): Jenkins folded the button after the player in the hijack opened for 700.
Hand #6 (Cutoff): Action folded around to Jenkins and he did the same.
Hand #7 (Hijack): A player opened for 700 in middle position and Jenkins folded.
Hand #8 (Middle Position): Jenkins folded after action folded to him.
It wasn't an exciting orbit, but then again, poker is slow more times than not.
