Kruze and Berg The Next to Fall
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Piotr Kruze got his short stack in with the 
and was ahead against Ido Aboudi, who tabled the 
. The superior kicker remained in the lead on the 
flop but the 
turn improved Aboudi, a blank came on the river.
Moments later, Christian Berg pushed a short stack of 275,000 in the cutoff and Hans Kersebom reluctantly called in the small blind.
Christian Berg: 
Hans Kersebom: 
The 
flop kept Berg ahead but he then simply shook the head on the 
turn when Kersebom improved. Nothing changed on the 
river and that spelled the end for Berg, too.
Sertac Turker followed suit momentarily as the field dropped to the last 48 contenders.
