Bergeron's Set Holds

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

Kyle Cartwright opened the action with a limp and two other players followed suit. From the cutoff, Craig Bergeron made it 1,300 to go and received calls from the player in the small blind, Cartwright, as well as one other limper.

The flop came {J-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{A-Spades} and three different hands quickly rapped the table, checking the action to Bergeron. Bergeron pushed out 3,800 and after some deliberation, the player in the small blind folded. Cartwright shot his hand into the muck and the other limper decided to do the same.

Fourth street came {10-Clubs} and the small blind checked. Bergeron stacked all of his chips and pushed them in the middle, moving all in for 14,175. His opponent pondered for a bit, talking to himself under his breath.

"I'm gonna call it," his opponent said, tabling {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}. Bergeron was ahead with {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} for a set of eights. The river brought no club, and therefore no help to his opponent, and Bergeron was able to double up. He's now sitting on about 31,200.
