"Got Some Raises Goin' On Over Here"

First into the pot from the button, Ioannis Beris raised to 17,000, and Hugo Mora three-bet to 40,000 next door in the small blind. Beris let out a big sigh as if he were frustrated, but he ended up making a reraise to 77,000 total to put the decision back on his opponent. Mora was undeterred, though, reraising all in for 318,000 total.

"Got some raises goin' on over here," Daniel Negreanu said, just barely looking up as he pecked away maniacally on his iPhone's keypad.

Beris spent a couple minutes in the tank, considering a call for all but 40,000 of his chips. Eventually, though, he double-checked his cards and returned them into the muck, leaving 281,000 in front of him.
