Berkenkamp Leaves Tapang With Crumbs

Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Action was heads up with 44,000 in the middle and when Jeffrey Berkenkamp checked and Maria Tapang bet 55,000. Berkenkamp responded with a shove for a total of 120,000 and Tapang sat back with just a bit more.
After a few moments of thought, Tapang tossed in the chips to call and turned over for the lead with a pair of deuces. Berkenkamp showed
with no pair but two over cards.
The turn and river ran out and Berkenkamp made a pair of kings on the river to double through Tapang and leave her with crumbs. She was eliminated a short time later.
