Laskowitz Bricks Out
Level 7
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Sam Laskowitz opened the action with a raise to 10,000 from the cutoff, which was called by the small blind Michael Berk.
After the flop came 9♣8♦5♣ Berk decided to lead out for a bet of 10,000, which Laskowitz called.
The turn was the 3♠ and Berk bet again, this time sizing up to 50,000. Laskowitz then moved all-in, and Berk quickly flipped in a chip to call.
Sam Laskowitz: 8♣6♣
Michael Berk: A♦9♦
Berk was ahead with his top pair, but Laskowitz had lots of outs, with second pair, a flush draw, and a straight draw. However, the river bricked out for Laskowitz, sending the pot to Berk and Laskowitz was eliminated.
