Brenes Loses Some

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

On a flop of {5-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, the player under the gun bet 300 and Humberto Brenes made the call. The {6-Spades} fell on the turn and the player under the gun checked to Brenes. Brenes took this opportunity to seize control of the pot by firing out a bet of 800. However, much to the chagrin of Brenes, his opponent check-raised him, making it 2,150 total. After some thinking, Brenes sent his cards into the muck, knocking his stack to around the starting size of 4,500.
