Berkey Gets Paid by Conan

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The board read {q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} when Matt Berkey first checked and Arthur Conan tossed a pile of 5,000 chips for a bet around 100,000. Berkey quickly called with {k-Spades}{2-Spades} for a pair of kings while Conan showed {a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}. Berkey, who final tabled six WSOP events, has now a stack approaching the million.

Siamao Loses Big

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The flop showed {5-Clubs}{8-Spades}{9-Hearts} with a pot already counting around 130,000 when Joao Simao check-called a bet of 55,000 from the button player. The turn was the {2-Spades} and brought no betting action.

On the river {j-Clubs}, Simao announced all in, covering the stack of 270,000 of his opponent. The latter snap-called, revealing {q-Spades}{9-Spades} for a pair of nines and Simao sent {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs} into the muck.

The turn was the {10-Spades} and went check-check. On the river {6-Hearts}, van Zadelhoff tossed a pile of 5,000 chips for a bet around 100,000. After some thoughts, Andriamahefa let it go.

Jason Vanstrom: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}

The runout was {8-Spades}{j-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and Vanstrom got his double up.
