Doyle Brunson (X)(X) {2-Clubs}

Mike Wattel (X)(X) {7-Diamonds}

Lyle Berman (X)(X) {5-Spades}

Doyle Brunson had the bring-in, Mike Wattel completed, Lyle Berman called and Brunson called as well. Wattel made the high board on fourth street and led out, both Berman and Brunson coming along. On fifth, Berman made an open pair of fives, but Wattel started to bet out before Berman could act. He took his bet back, Berman bet, Brunson folded, and Wattel raised. Looking just sick about it, Berman mucked his cards, Wattel taking down the sizeable pot. After starting as the short stack, he's now up to 325,000 while Berman is down to 152,000.
