King Bests Berens

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Christina Coviello limped from the cutoff before Katie Berens raised to 600 on the button. Melissa King three-bet to 1,600 from the small blind, which prompted a fold from Coviello.

Berens called to bring the flop of JQ9.

Both players checked the flop, leading to the 9 turn. Berens checked before King bet 2,000. Berens called.

The 3 hit the river before Berens put out a bet of 1,000. King called to go to a showdown.

Berens showed A10 for a missed straight. Ace high was not enough as King showed 1010 to claim the pot.
