Berende Doing Well
Paul Berende didn't start all that good today, but he's doing better now.
First his stack dropped to about 60,000 by losing a big pot. In that hand Berende opened under the gun to 1,800 and he got three-betted to 4,100. The player in the big blind cold four-bet all in for 18,000. Berende made the call holding 
and eventually lost to 
.
Not much later he got a full double up though. A player in middle position opened and Jamie Roberts from the United Kingdom three bet to 4,100. Holding 
Berende decided to cold four-bet and Roberts made the call.
Berende flopped gold on 
with one diamond. Berende's c-bet of 11,200 got a call and Roberts called the 39,000 shove on the blank on the turn as well. Roberts had for top-two and wouldn't improve to a full house.
