Humberto Brenes

Humberto Brenes raised to 750 from middle position, and the table folded around to the gentleman in the cutoff who after some thought finally tossed out the chips to call.

"No! No, sir! Why?" cried Brenes with a grin. The remaining players all folded. "Okay," Brenes exhaled, glad enough he only had one caller. "One to one!"

The flop came {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

{A-Spades}

. Brenes removed one of the plastic sharks from his stack and began to grab some chips, then rapped the table. His opponent checked as well. Both also checked the {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

turn and

{2-Hearts}

river.

Brenes' opponent showed {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

for nines. Brenes tabled his {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{4-Clubs}

. "Why, sir?" Brenes asked again with a big grin.

Brenes is at 42,500.
