Brenes Knocked Down a Peg

We can't be sure when the money got all in; it was some point post-flop, but that's as close as we can get. However it happened, it did not go well for Humberto Brenes. When we walked up to the table, the Team PokerStars Pro was counting out the debt that he needed to pay the gentleman who'd just doubled through him.

Brenes was showing {A-Spades} {J-Spades}, but his opponent's {A-Clubs} {A-Hearts} was the best hand on the {Q-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {J-Hearts} {10-Clubs} {A-Diamonds} board. With about 20,000 in the pot already and another 31,500 leaving him after the double, Brenes has been knocked back to about 79,000 — still well above the chip average.
