Heads-up on a board of A♥Q♠8♠Q♥, Erik Perry bet from the big blind and Richard Brushett called the button.

Johnson Sends Berg to the Rail

Niveau 21 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

Action folded to Poker Hall of Fame member Linda Johnson in late position who came in for a raise. Only Lawrence Berg in the cutoff came along and the two saw a flop of 9♣10♠5♦.

Johnson checked to Berg who quickly tossed in a bet that was called by Johnson, prompting the dealer to burn and turn the 8♠.

Johnson checked again to Berg who opted on another bet but this time, Johnson came back with a check-raise. Berg, acting quickly and decisively throughout the hand, tossed in the call to see the 10♣ river card.

Johnson eyed Berg's stack before she grabbed chips and tossed out a bet that would commit Berg's final chips.

Berg quickly called and watched as Johnson rolled over the A♥Q♣J♣9♥, good for the nut straight, prompting Berg to toss his cards toward the muck and exit the tournament area.

Shortly after his encounter with Chris Vitch, James Obst was involved in another big pot as two players were all in by the turn.

Simao had J♥A♣4♣2♦, the button 3♥9♦J♦A♦, and Obst A♠10♠8♦2♠. The river came the 9♠ and Obst made a straight to win the entire pot, knocking out the Brazilian bracelet winner and the button.
