Berman Gets There, Mogilnicki Finishes the Job
Level 8
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
On a heads-up flop of J♠3♦9♣, David Berman and another player got all of their chips into the middle, with Berman at risk.
David Berman: K♥J♦
Opponent: Q♣Q♥
Berman would need some help to stay alive, and he sure got it as the turn came the K♦ to give him the lead and the river was the blank 7♠ to award him the pot.
Left short, his opponent then moved all in the very next hand with eight-nine offsuit and was called by Edward Mogilnicki who ironically held pocket queens. The at-risk player failed to find any help from the board and he was eliminated while Mogilnicki raked in the pot.
