Bernstein Raises the Roof

The table folded around to the blinds, and David Bernstein open-shoved for the 860,000 he had left. Next door, Phil D'Auteuil looked down at
and made the call, and Bernstein's
was an underdog to keep him around.
He was drawing live, though, and the
flop was about as good as it gets. It was good enough that the
on the turn was further improvement, and Bernstein threw his arms up in the air to celebrate his now-certain double. The
river was meaningless, and D'Auteuil has given his neighbor a double up.
