Michael Berk raises to 20,000 under-the-gun and gets calls from Jeremy Becker on the button and the big blind.

The trio checks the flop to see the turn.

Following a big blind check, Berk bets 30,000 which gets called by both opponents.

The river sees another check followed by another Berk bet, this time for 65,000.

Berk’s bet is bumped by Becker to a bigger 170,000. The big blind bows out.

Berk briefly buries himself in the blender before believing he’s best. He calls.

Becker shows for top two pair, but Berk shows for a set of jacks and the winner.

Michael Berk – 622,000 (51 bb)
Jeremy Becker – 520,000 (43 bb)
