Josh Bergman Gets a Sweat

Four players see a flop of [AhJh9s].  Christian Iacobelis checks in the small blind,  Gina Fiore checks from the big blind, and Josh Bergman bets 1,125 from under the gun.  The player in the cutoff raises to 4,125, prompting folds from Iacobelis and Fiore.  Bergman takes a minute, then raises an additional 4,500.

His opponent thinks a bit, then calls and the two go heads-up to the turn, which brings the [2s].  Bergman bets 12,500, leaving around 13,000 behind.  His opponent starts to think and, after about two minutes, asks Bergman how much he has.  Bergman confirms he has around 25,000 total.  The player cuts 25,000 out of his stack and eyes how much he will have left should he call and lose.

After another minute of though, the player folds [AsKd] for top pair face-up, and Bergman takes the pot.

Josh Bergman – 40,000
