Berkey Over Ladouceur

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Three ways to the {7-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{9-Diamonds} turn, Marc-Andre Ladouceur bet 6,500 from the small blind. Cutoff Matt Berkey was next to act, and he paused for a moment before raising to 17,500. Berkey's left-hand opponent still looked to be interested in capturing the pot, but eventually laid it down.

Ladouceur was also tempted, asking the dealer about the size of the raise. Berkey remained stoic, and Ladouceur let his hand go.
