Bjerga Stays Alive; Meidinger Wins Side
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Action picked up on the flop of J♣9♥5♣ in a hand between Jamie Meidinger in late position, Ervin Bjerga in the hijack, and the player on the button.
It checked over to the button who bet 7,000, Meidinger called, and Bjerga moved all in for 10,500 to put himself at risk. The button called, as did Meidinger.
On the 9♣ turn, Meidinger checked and the button moved all in for a little over 35,000 to put himself at risk. Meidinger quickly called.
Ervin Bjerga: 4♣3♣
Button: A♠A♦
Jamie Meidinger: 9♦8♠
The river landed the 6♣ and Bjerga earned the main pot with a flush to triple up. Meidinger won the side pot with trip nines, and the button was sent to the rail.
