A player raised from middle position to 1,000, another player called, the cutoff called, the button called, and Dave Berman moved all in from the small blind for 14,000.

The original raiser moved all in over the top for 22,200, and the next player to act tanked for a very long time before he folded. The cutoff and the button both quickly folded.

Berman turned over 4h4d, and he needed to improve to stay alive against his opponent’s 7s7d. Several players grumbled that they wish they hadn’t folded.

The board came AdKd8h4s5s, and Berman turned a set of fours to win the pot and double up in chips.

Dave Berman  –  31,800  (64 bb)

After that hand, Level 5 came to an end, and Level 6 began with increased blinds of 300-500 with a 500 ante. There are now 369 entries in the field, with registration open until about 9:15 pm.
