Peach Doubles Through Pearson's Bluff
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Wayne Peach open-raised to 16,000 in the hijack. Matthew Pearson defended his big blind before both players checked the 3♠K♦K♠ flop. Pearson checked again on the 9♦ turn, after which Peach placed a small bet.
Pearson raised to 30,000, and Peach called to the 5♥ river. After some thought, Pearson moved all in, covering Peach's stack of 133,000. Peach immediately called, forcing Pearson to table Q♦10♣ for queen-high.
Peach had flopped trips with K♥J♠ and comfortably raked in his double-up.
