Bernard "Runs So Bad"

Bernard: a chop is better than nothing!
Bernard: a chop is better than nothing!
Alfred Grech raised it up to 3,500 from middle position preflop, only to find PokerNews reporter James Bernard call from the button and Jamie Glazier make up the difference in the small blind.

It was three-way action into a flop of {7-Spades}{3-Spades}{6-Hearts}; Grech led out for 8,000, Bernard flat-called and Glazier got out of the way as the turn came down {4-Clubs}.

Grech moved the last of his stack into the middle and Bernard snap-called.

Bernard: {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}
Grech: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

Bernard was well ahead with his set against Grech's overpair, but the {5-Clubs} spiked on the river to complete a straight on the board and chop the pot!

"I run so bad," Bernard sighed as the dealer shipped over his dividend.
