Booth Finds a Heart on the River
Level 8
: 400/800, 800 ante
Five players saw a flop for 2,200 apiece and the dealer fanned the 
. The action checked to the preflop raiser who continued for 3,600. Pat Booth raised to 14,000 in the cutoff and Likang Berninger shipped all in on the button. It folded back to Booth who made a crying call to put himself at risk.
Pat Booth: 
Likang Berninger: 
The 
on the turn was safe for Berninger but the 
on the river gave Booth the nut flush. The stacks were counted and Booth was at risk for 21,500, leaving Berninger with only 1,700 behind. He would be all in the very next hand but ran into pocket aces which sent him to the rail.
