Perry's Main Event Sails Away

Level 18 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
John Perry

The action folded around to John Perry in the small blind, who limped in. Paawan Bansal was in the big blind and bumped it up to 60,000, then Perry shoved for 545,000, sending Bansal into the tank.

"Why didn't I just check," muttered Bansal under his breath. After some more thinking, Bansal called.

John Perry: 44 All in
Paawan Bansal: A9

"HOLD," were the cries from Perry's rail behind him, but it wasn't looking likely after the KA3 flop gave Bansal top pair. No fours arrived on the 67 runout, and Perry's Main Event run sailed away into the distance.
