Berente Builds Against Kozub
Level 2
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Aku Joentausta opened his button to 5,000. Mark Berente called in the small blind before Tomasz Kozub three-bet to 20,000. Joentausta quickly folded, but Berente fancied a flop and called.
The J♣2♣4♣ the dealer fanned saw Berente lead out for 15,000. Kozub called to the 10♣ turn, which Berente checked. Kozub took the opportunity to bet 26,000.
Berente stuck around with a call, and the 4♠ river was checked to showdown after. Berente showed K♦9♦8♣5♣ for a flopped flush, and he raked in the pot when Kozub mucked his cards.
