A Berda in the Hand

[user46392]

It's been a great year so far for Israeli player Tomer Berda. He started it off with a cash at the PCA and then another one at the EPT Grand Final, where he also won a side event. His run only improved when he got to Vegas, winning a bracelet in the $2,500 NLH event and finalling a $1,500 NLH event too before finishing an extremely respectable 134th in the Main Event.

Berda cashed at EPT Tallinn as well, and came second in a side event at EPT Vilamoura - and he's now in an excellent position to make a serious assault on this EPT.

We're not sure exactly when the chips went in, but the cards looked like so:

Berda: {9-} {9-}
Opponent gentleman: {j-} {8-}

Board: {7-} {9-} {10-} {10-} {3-}

Berda's opponent flopped a straight but Berda turned a full house, and the hapless unknown gentleman hit the rail. Berda meanwhile is flying relatively high on 55,000.
