It's a Jungle Out There, Humberto

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

From the button, Daniel "jungleman12" Cates raised to 4,500, and Humberto Brenes three-bet to 17,000 in the small blind. Cates asked the dealer to count Brenes' remaining stack (~210,000) before he called to see a flop.

Both men checked the {J-Hearts} {A-Spades} {4-Hearts} flop, and Brenes finally bet 34,000 on the {5-Hearts} turn. Cates called, and the {5-Diamonds} river went check-check once again. Cates showed up {Q-Hearts} {J-Spades}, and Brenes could not beat it. He mucked, dropping down to about 170,000 while Cates moves back up over 300,000.
