Berk Doubles Through Richez
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Clement Richez raised to 225,000 in early position and was called by Spencer Taylor in the cutoff. Michael Berk slid out a reraise to 3,210,000, and only Richez called.
The flop came 7♠7♣4♥, and Berk checked to Richez, who announced all-in. Berk looked around the room and then called off his last 115,000 chips.
Michael Berk: A♦K♦
Clement Richez: A♣Q♣
Berk was in the lead, and the K♠ on the turn cemented that position. Richez was drawing dead to the 9♦ on the river and would have to send over a double-up.
