Becker Chips Up Without Showdown

Jay Kerbel lost a small portion of his short stack to Luis Velador when the latter bet the K♣5♣2♠ flop.

One hand later, Johannes Becker raised and Kyle Cartwright three-bet on the button for the German to call. They headed to the Q♥8♦7♦ flop on which Becker check-called a bet. Both checked the 7♠ turn and Becker bet the ]2h] river, forcing out Cartwright.
