Perez Doubles with Nuts, Bergman Exits
Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
On a multi-way flop of A♦J♣Q♠, Edward Bergman checked, a player bet 25,000, and then Erik Perez potted it to 123,000. Bergman then check-raised all in, which prompted a quick fold from the original raiser and Perez got the rest of his chips in, putting himself at risk.
Erik Perez: K♠10♦9♠7♦
Edward Bergman: A♠A♣10♥6♦
Perez was in the lead with his flopped nut straight, but he needed to fade the board pairing against Bergman or a king that would mean a chop. Fortunately for him, the runout of 6♠7♣ were complete bricks and he was pushed the pot for the double.
Meanwhile, Bergman was left short and wound up exiting two hands later to Jonathan Bowers.
