Berilgen Wins Big Without Showdown
Level 30
: 80,000/160,000, 0 ante
David Halpern raised from the cutoff to 160,000 and Derek McMaster put in three bets worth 240,000 from the button. Small blind Jason Berilgen called and big blind John Esposito got out of the way. Halpern called to see a three-way flop.
The flop fell 
and Berilgen put in a bet of 80,000. The bet was called by Halpern but McMaster bet 160,000. Both Berilgen and Halpern called.
The turn was the 
and it checked to McMaster who bet 160,000. Both Berilgen and Halpern called to see the 
river.
Berilgen lead out again with a bet of 160,000 and that was enough to make both his opponents fold.
