Berman Eliminated by Becker

Level 7 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Bradley Berman
Bradley Berman

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Bradley Berman raised to 6,000 and then called all-in with his short stack when Johannes Becker jammed. Becker patted and Berman took two to get shown the {10-}{6-}{4-}{3-}{2-} by Becker.

"I still have outs," Berman said and rolled over {9-}{4-}{3-}. He peeled the {j-}{2-} and was eliminated.

Since two players had not shown up in time yet, Becker and Shaun Deeb were heads-up after the hand was over.

"I always wanted to play heads-up against you in the Poker Players Championship," Becker said to Deeb, who replied with a "and I am glad I am on your left."

Ryan Leng
Ryan Leng

No-Limit Hold'em

Ryan Leng limped on the button and Robert Mizrachi completed from the small blind. Freddy Deeb then raised to 18,000 total from the big blind and only Leng called.

The flop came {2-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{j-Hearts} and Deeb continued for 22,000. Leng called.

The {q-Hearts} fell on the turn and Deeb checked to Leng, who fired 80,000 into the middle. Deeb called.

Deeb checked to Leng when the {9-Spades} completed the board and Leng announced he was all in, which was enough to put Deeb all in for his last 150,000.

Deeb decided to fold and Leng tabled {7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for a stone bluff as he dragged the pot.
