Humberto's Aces Are Cracked

A player limped on the button with {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}. Humberto Brenes then raised from the small blind with A-A. The button player made an inopportune re-raise to 7,300, putting himself all in, and Brenes called, showing his rockets.

The flop of {K-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} gave Brenes's opponent a pair and a flush draw. The {J-Hearts} on the turn put Brenes firmly behind, and, to add insult to injury, the {K-Hearts} on the river gave his opponent a boat. Brenes is down to around 38,000
