Humberto Brenes said that he has not had more than 50K since the start of the tournament. He was down to 11K at the bubble ten minutes ago and since then he's doubled up three times. He went from 11K to 40K to 95K and is now at 170K after he scooped a pot with A-K versus A-Q.

Beware of the Costa Rican shark. He bites when you least expect it.
