Berman Weathers a Blow

Lyle Berman
Lyle Berman
The UTG player opened for 300, Lyle Berman called, and a middle position player reraised to 900. The action was folded around to the UTG player, who mucked and Berman made the call. The flop was {A-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {10-Clubs}. Berman checked, the MP player bet 2,350 and Berman called. The turn was the {J-Diamonds}. Berman checked, the MP player bet 7,500 and Berman gave it up.

After that early hit, Berman is down to 15,000.
