Nice Laydown for Brenes
Level 6
: 200/400, 75 ante
Action folded to an unknown player in the hijack and he promptly opened for 800. The cutoff, button, and small blind all folded, putting action on Humberto Brenes in the big blind. Ever vocal, Brenes uttered something in Spanish before making the call. The 
flop didn’t inspire much action as both players checked, leading to the 
turn.
At this point, Brenes lead out for 700, his opponent called, and the 
appeared on the river. Again Brenes bet, this time 1,100, but the hijack responded with a raise to 3,225. Brenes must have known something was up as he gave a little speech and folded his 
two pair. His intuition was right as the hijack was kind enough to show him his 
rivered straight.
