The Shark has Been Caught

Humberto Brenes
Humberto Brenes

Action folded around to the short-stacked Humberto Brenes in the small blind and he shipped his last 40,000, which was called by the player in the big blind.

Showdown
Brenes: {10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Big Blind: {A-Hearts}{4-Spades}

The Team PokerStars Pro was behind, but he held live cards. The Costa Rican pro is very popular in Latin America, so it was no surprise the spectators were pulling for him. The {4-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} flop gave the big blind a pair of four, and left Brenes looking for either a nine, ten, or running straight cards.

The {2-Hearts} took away any hope of a straight, and it was down to the river for "The Shark". Much to the disappointment of the entire room, the {8-Spades} appeared, and with that, Brenes' time in Colombia came to a close.
