Song Sinks Berthelsen's Boat
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
On a heads-up river board that read 2♥2♦K♠8♥2♠, Stephen Song was first to act and he bet 600,000 in the already swelled pot of 800,000.
The action was then on Kevin Berthelsen, who then weighed his options for a bit.
After using a time bank, he made the call, at which point Song showed 8♦8♠ for a big full house, eights full of deuces. while Berthelson flashed the 8♣ for deuces full of eights. Song was then awarded the large pot to boost his stack up to 3,600,000 while Berthelsen was left with just 900,000.
