Brenden Takes Two
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Matt Combs led out for 8,000 from the small blind on a flop of Q♠9♦9♠ and Harold Brenden called in the hijack.
The turn was the 5♦ and Combs checked over to Brenden, who moved all in for 24,000. Combs quickly folded.
A few hands later, Andrew Jelle bet 3,000 from the big blind on a flop of A♥10♥K♠ and Brenden called under the gun.
Both players checked the 3♣ turn, and Jelle bet another 3,000 on the 2♠ river. Brenden called with A♣9♠ for top pair, and Jelle mucked.
John Choleva and Monty Klistoff both reentered after busting earlier.
