Berkey on a Tear

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Matt Berkey was on the brink a few levels ago. Not anymore. Since he went as low as bout 100,000, Berkey has run over his table, and it has not gone unnoticed.

James Mackey had got the best of Berkey in two massive pots but Berkey has taken it all back. Even stating for the record during the last level that he "would take all of those chips."

The two tangled again recently in a preflop raise war that ended with Mackey all-in and at risk. Both players tabled ace-king but Mackey was forced to sweat a club flush that Berkey picked up on the turn. The river bricked and both players pulled their chips back.
