Brenes Moving Into Contention
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Humberto Brenes in middle position bet 2,800 and was called by the cutoff and the big blind. Brenes continued on the A?10?3? flop for 3,000. The cutoff folded but the big blind made the call.
Both players checked the 4? on the turn, but Brenes bet 5,000 on the 10? river. The big blind opted to fold and Costa Rica's all-time highest earner in tournament poker raked in the pot.
