Matt Berkey

Matt Berkey opened the button to 3,000, Allen Bari called in the small blind, and Matthew Yorra defended his big blind.

The flop was Tc6h4d. It checked to Berkey, who continued for 6,000, and only Yorra called.

Heads-up, the turn was the 6c, and Yorra check-called another 12,000.

The river was the 7d. Yorra checked again, and Berkey bet 23,000. Yorra took a couple minutes with the decision, seeming to be favoring a call or a fold at varying points. Eventually, he called.

Berkey showed 8h9d, winning the pot with a ten-high straight.

Matt Berkey – 165,000 (138 bb)
Matthew Yorra – 38,000 (32 bb)
