Perez Raises Diaz on the River
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Angel Perez and Day 1a chip leader Borja Diaz (not to be confused with last year's fourth-place finisher with the same name, who also came into today with 108,000) built a pot of around 30,000 as they went heads-up to the Q♠J♣3♥ flop. Perez then bet 8,000 from the cutoff and Diaz called in middle position.
Both players checked the 10♦ turn and the K♦ fell on the river. Diaz then led out for 10,000 and Perez came back with a raise to 30,000, leaving himself just 5,000 behind. Diaz quickly folded and Perez took the pot.
