$2,500 Coco Poker Open Championship
Level 21: 8,000/16,000/2,000 Ante

Players were getting ready to hit the second break of the day when Nathan Bjerno and Matt Affleck got involved in a big hand. Affleck opened from the button and called a three-bet from Bjerno from the big blind to see the 8d6d2h flop. Bjerno bet out 80,000 and Affleck called.

Bjerno shoved for 396,000 after the 5h turn and Affleck went into the tank. He eventually called with top pair 8c7c but was behind Bjerno’s over pair JcJd. The Ac provide no help and Bjerno got a big double.
