Brenes Takes One Out

Humberto Brenes
Humberto Brenes
On a flop of {Q-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {3-Diamonds}, Humberto Brenes checked to an opponent who bet 525. Brenes quickly moved all in for his last 1,850, and just as quickly his opponent called. Brenes was a huge favorite when he turned over {3-Hearts} {3-Spades} for a set. His opponent had only made top pair with {K-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}. He did not improve and was eliminated from the tournament.

Brenes now has well over 5,000 chips.
