Brenes Still Biting

A few minutes after getting a player at his table to fold on the river of a big pot, Humberto Brenes mixed it up with the guy again. Brenes checked an {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop, and his opponent bet 4,400. Then Humberto check-raised to 10,000. The other player moved all in with {a-Spades}{9-Spades}, and Brenes called him with {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}. The {j-Spades} on the turn meant Brenes had to dodge spades but didn't have to worry about nines. And the {j-Hearts} on the river gave the Shark Man a full boat. He busted the other player and built up to 107,000.
