Gordon Looks Up Bernui
Level 18
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Action was picked up on the river in a pot between Abraham Gordon on the button and Lucas Bernui in the big blind.
After check-calling every street against Gordon on a board reading Q♠10♦2♣8♠3♣, Bernui checked once more on the river to see Gordon bet 80,000.
Bernui moved all in for 353,000 and Gordon went into the tank, counting down his own stack and talking through the hand.
"I call," said Gordon after a little more time in the tank.
Lucas Bernui: 9♣8♦
Abraham Gordon: 3♥2♥
Gordon had rivered bottom two while Bernui was just left with a pair of eights and a missed gutter. The 2025 Borgata Summer Open champion took down a massive pot to rise up the chip counts while Bernui was eliminated from the tournament.
