Berger Pushing
Play has been fairly slow since losing Joey Barttole.
The only noted aggression has been shown by Barry Berger who has now pushed all in two hands in a row to pretty much double his stack through the blinds and antes.
Rico Ramiriz may have plenty of chips, but he isn't afraid to splash them round as he has three-bet two separate opponents twice during the last orbit. -
