Tim Baker
Tim Baker
Level 5 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Marius Gierse raised to 8,000 from the hijack and Eli Berg called from the big blind.

Berg check-called a bet of 6,000 from Gierse on the K♠5♥Q♠ flop.

The 3♦ hit the turn and Berg check-called a second bet from Gierse, this time for 18,000.

Both checked the J♦ river and Gierse won the pot with Q♣J♣ for two pair on the river.
