According to my Atlas of European Spiders
Leptorchestes fits better (not only because I am "berolinensis" too

!). This spider has a distinct groove in the black abdomen and also a black thorax.
Myrmarachne formicaria has no groove and is more colourful (half black, half brown). This is the only species of
Myrmarachne described in my book. - A slight groove is also seen in the abdomen of
Synageles venator. However, the basal half of the abdomen has to be brown. So I vote for the first one!
PS. A body length of 10 mm is a bit much for all the species under discussion. However,
Leptorchestes is the biggest one with max. 7 mm.

I dont guarante 10 mm, but I toook photo on white paper, on spot where I keep ruller, so I'm almost 100% sure that I actualy measured this one.
