Bernstein Bests Online Stars "XTheDecanoX" & "ragen70"

Thiago "XTheDecanoX" Nishijima raised to 3,500 from early position and was called by Sven Niklas "ragen70" Heinecker. Samuel Bernstein then opted for a three-bet to 11,000 from the small blind, which both his opponents called.

When the flop fell {5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{9-Hearts}, Bernstein simply moved all in and both Nishijima and Heinecker folded.

For those unfamiliar with Nishijima, a 33-year-old online pro from São Paulo, Brazil, we recommend you check out his recent PokerNews interview.
