Berger Makes the Wrong Call as Ortiz Surpasses 200k

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Seth Berger
Seth Berger

We caught up with Seth Berger and Jose Ortiz involved in a pot on the river. The board showed {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Clubs} and Berger had made a bet of 10,600 into a pot of roughly 15,500. Ortiz was in the cutoff seat and he reraised, making it a total of 40,000 to call.

Berger was deep in the tank and was thinking for roughly two minutes when Ortiz called the clock. A floor man came over, and when Berger's countdown hit 10, he announced a called.

"Three fives," Ortiz said, showing {5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}.

"F#$@!" Berger said, frustratedly mucking his hand and stacking out the chips to send over.
