Bye, Bye, Brenes

We noticed the far corner of the room was unusually quiet, so we made our way through the crowd of spectators to go figure out what the problem was. Humberto Brenes' chair was missing an Humberto, and table mate Darus Suharto told us the tale of his demise.

Humberto and his opponent saw a flop come down {J-Clubs} {9-?} {5-Clubs} with two clubs. All of the money went in, Humberto tabling {A-Clubs} {J-?} against his opponent's {7-Clubs} {9-Clubs}. A third club on the turn put Humberto in immediate danger, and he could not find another club to re-improve to his flush.

The shark is extinct.
