Johnson Doubles Through Berkey

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Rodger Johnson
Rodger Johnson

Matt Berkey opened to 4,000 from an early position and Adria Diaz three-bet to 11,000 in the cutoff. Rodger Johnson called in the small blind and Berkey waved to check the stack sizes of both opponents to then reraise to around 120,000. That covered both opponents and Diaz snap-folded, while Johnson instantly called all-in.

Rodger Johnson: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Matt Berkey: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}

The {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} flop gave Berkey an additional gutshot but Johnson prevailed with the {k-Spades} turn and {10-Hearts} river.
