Berk Sends One to the Rail

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante
Michael Berk
Michael Berk

From early position, Michael Berk opened to 1,800 and was called by Adam Thomas on his direct left.

On a flop of {k-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}, Berk continued for 1,800 and was called by Thomas.

The turn brought the {3-Diamonds} and, again, Berk led out, this time for 6,500. Thomas counted his stack and then put them all in the middle. Berk quickly called and was in good shape with his {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} against the {k-Spades}{q-Hearts} of Thomas.

The river {j-Spades} was clean and Thomas was sent to the rail while Berk increased his stack.
