Berente Chops Down Eljach
Level 2
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Heads-up on a flop of 2?9?4?, Mark Berente bet 8,000 from the hijack and Omar Eljach, who won the WSOP Europe Main Event in this room last year, called in middle position.
The turn came the 2? and Berente bet another 15,000. Eljach then came back with a raise to 40,000 and Berente burned a time bank before calling.
Eljach tossed out another 50,000 on the Q? and Berente quickly called. Eljach turned over A?7?5?4?, but Berente had 9?9?8?6? for a full house to win the massive pot and leave Eljach short stacked.
