Brenes Begins to Slip

After hanging around about even, Humberto Brenes got involved in a large pot.

From middle position he raised preflop. The button came over the top and Brenes called. The flop was {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{7-Spades} and again Brenes lead out with a bet. The button raised and Brenes called.

The turn flipped the {4-Spades} and after Brenes checked, the button bet his remaining 175. Brenes made the call and the hands were turned over. Brenes had {10-?}{10-?} and his opponent had {Q-?}{Q-?}. The river brought the {8-Hearts} and was no help to Brenes.

Brenes now has 1,375 in chips.
