Green Catches Runner-Runner on Berk; Walsh Has a Sweat Against Gusmao
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Michael Berk raised to 30,000 in the hijack and Richard Green called on the button, as did Pedro Gusmao in the big blind.
Action checked to Green on the A♦3♥2♣ flop and he bet 35,000. Only Berk called and they both checked the K♣ turn.
Berk then led out for 20,000 on the Q♣ river, and Green called. Berk showed A♥10♦ for top pair, but Green had K♠Q♦ for running two pair to win the pot.
A few hands later at this table, Michael Walsh moved all in for 325,000 from the small blind and Gusmao called on the button.
Michael Walsh: Q♠Q♣
Pedro Gusmao: A♥Q♥
The 3♥6♥2♦ flop gave Gusmao a flush draw, but he missed the 9♠ turn and K♠ river, and Walsh doubled up.
