Heads Up So Far

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 3,000 ante
Heads Up: Bjorin & Perrins
Heads Up: Bjorin & Perrins

The heads up so far has seen both player stick with min-raising from button and occasionally giving each other walks. There have only been three draws so far.

In the first Bjorin called a Perrins raise and both drew two. It went check-check and Bjorin's {2-}{2-}{K-}{9-}{4-} was good as Perrins revealed he had drawn a pair of aces.

In the second Bjorin called another Perrins raise, the Englishman stood pat, and Bjorin drew two before they both checked again. Perrins showed {J-}{10-}{9-}{7-}{3-} for the pot.

Finally, in the biggest pot so far, Bjorin raised to 24,000 and Matt Perrins reraised to 62,000. Bjorin made the call, Perrins drew two and Bjorin just one, Perrins checked and Bjorin quickly fired out 75,000. Perrins looked as though he was going to make the call but after a minute or so thinking, he opted to muck his hand instead.

No Draws

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 3,000 ante

It's very tight at the moment and there have been very few draws or showdowns, but Matt Perrins is gradually increasing his lead.

Over One Million

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 3,000 ante

Bjorin on the button raised to 24,000, and Perrins re-raised to 64,000, getting a call from Bjorin.

Bjorin drew one and Perrins stood pat. After the draw, Perrins bet 73,000 and Bjorin folded. This was the biggest heads-up pot yet, and Bjorin was left with 220,000 while Perrins now has about 1,000,000.

Matt Perrins raised to 24,000 and Chris Bjorin called before taking two cards. Perrins stood pat, and Bjorin checked, then folded when the Brit bet 23,000.

This elicited a few cheers from the UK crowd who shouted, "Stand Pat Mat!" and "Pat Perrins!" at their friend.

Chris Bjorin raised to 24,000 but then had to fold when Matt Perrins set him all in.

Next hand saw Perrins raise to 24,000 and Bjorin called. Both players drew two cards and it went check-check. Bjorin showed a super strong {8-}{6-}{5-}{3-}{2-}, which was more than enough for the pot.

Perrins then got a walk before winning the next hand too with another raise to 24,000.

11-1 Chiplead

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 3,000 ante

Most hands have been raise, fold, but we finally got a draw.

Perrins raised to 24,000 from the button and was called by Bjorin in the big blind. Both drew 2.

After the draw, Perrins bet 35,000 and Bjorin called. Perrins showed that the draw served him well when he threw down {8-}{7-}{6-}{3-}{2-} to take down the pot.

Perrins- 1,150,000
Bjorin- 95,000

Chris Bjorin - 2nd Place
Chris Bjorin - 2nd Place

Perrins moved all in from the button for 1,150,000 and after a bit of tanking, Bjorin made the call and both elected to draw one.

Bjorin showed {10-}{7-}{6-}{3-} and Perrins was ahead with a {8-}{6-}{5-}{3-}

Bjorin then said, "Can you draw first so I know what I have to beat?.. I might be drawing dead."

Perrins did so and drew the nut card with a {2-}. Bjorin drew a meaningless {K-} and Perrins took down the bracelet and $102,105.
