"My Heart Was Beating So Fast"

Nivel 17 : 2,500-5,000, 500 ante
Matt Berkey
Matt Berkey

When we arrived at the table, Mark Ioli had 79,000 sitting in front of him on a flop of {3-Clubs}{9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. Matt Berkey, his opponent, slid out enough chips to make the call, and the turn brought the {7-Diamonds}.

Berkey checked, Ioli quickly fired out 112,000, and Berkey sat quietly for nearly two minutes. Eventually he pulled out a 20-stack of blue T5,000 chips, added a few on top, and made the call.

A repeat nine - the {9-Clubs} - completed the board, and Berkey checked again.

"All in," Ioli croaked, effectively betting 286,000.

Berkey went into the tank once again, silently riffling chips with one hand. He eventually slid his cards forward, signaling a fold, and started to grin.

"I was so light," Berkey chuckled.

"My heart was beating so fast," Ioli responded, showing {a-Spades}{q-Spades} for effectively ace-high.

"I almost jammed turn!" Berkey exclaimed.

Berkey later admitted that he folded a three, and continued to grin and Ioli stacked his newfound chips.

Olofsson Doubles Through Guillen

Nivel 17 : 2,500-5,000, 500 ante

Erik Olofsson, who was recently crippled, has managed to score a double to get him back in the game. He was all in for his last 39,000 holding {K-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. Unfortunately at the time for Olofsson, he was dominated by PokerStars Team Pro Angel Guillen who held {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}.

The board dropped down {3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, though, which paired Olofsson's four and allowed him to stay alive in the tournament. He's now sitting on 100,000 while Guillen has dropped to 125,000.
