Banana Split

Brkovic busted!
Brkovic busted!
The Online Team has lost another in the form of Aleks 'Banana Thief' Brkovic after being eliminated at the hands of Bruno Portaro.

Portaro raised it up to 600 before the flop, only to see Brkovic reraise to 1,700. Portaro moved all in over the top and Brkovic snap-called.

Brkovic: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Portaro: {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}

The flop of {6-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} helped neither player, but Portaro took the lead on the turn {A-Hearts}. Needing a nine to stay alive, the {K-Clubs} bricked out on the river to end Brkovic's day.
