Perez's Pair Holds Up
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
A player in the cutoff raised to 400, Luis Perez three-bet to 1,200 on the button, and the cutoff called.
The flop came K♥5♠6♣ and Perez continued for 1,000. His opponent called and the 9♦ fell on the turn.
Both players checked the turn and the 4♠ river. Perez turned over 8♠8♦ and his opponent sent his cards into the muck.
Alvaro Murciano, who finished runner-up to Ian Simpson in Madrid in January, has recently taken his seat.
