Berende HAD One Hand on the Trophy

Paul Berende has some body armour underneath that black sweatshirt, because he is taking some terrible body blows today. Earlier we saw him lose AK<AQ in a hand against Oswin Ziegelbecker, and we have just seen him lose in much worse circumstances, because he had one hand on the trophy at the time.

Vladimir Bozinovic opens the button, Paul Berende raises to 460,000, Bozinovic moves all-in and Berende calls.

Showdown

Bozinovic: [Qs] [Js]
Berende: [Ac] [Qh]

Flop: [Ts] [9d] [2h]

“Nice sweat,” says Berende who has Bozinovic covered.

Turn: [5c]

Nothing changes

River: [8h]

The crowd go wild, and to his credit, Berende just smiles and shakes his opponent’s hand, but that must have hurt. Bozinovic rivers his straight just like Ziegelbecker earlier today.

Berende ~ 1.3 million
Bozinovic ~ 6.3 million
