All In Preflop: Middleton vs. Perez

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Action folded to Tom Middleton in the hijack and he opened for 160,000. Alejandro Perez, who was next to act, then opted to three-bet all in for 1.365 million from the cutoff. The button and both blinds folded, and Middleton made the call.

Middleton: {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Perez: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Perez got it in good, but he seemed nervous to be in a race situation. He sat with an intense look on his face, but as soon as the {a-Spades}{6-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop paired Middleton, Perez became downtrodden. The {K-Clubs} turn, which gave him a flush draw, perked him up a bit, so imagine how excited he was when the {5-Clubs} river completed it.

"Vamos," Perez shouted as his rail erupted in cheers. Middleton did not say a word.
