Perez Flops the Nuts in Five-Way Pot

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Five players saw a flop of 879 where Jason Rocha bet 2,200 from the hijack. Francisco Perez then raised to 9,000 in the small blind.

Luke Appleton tanked for a minute before folding under the gun, while Sylwester Fortuna also folded in middle position as action went back on Rocha who moved all in. Perez snap-called for 20,000.

Francisco Perez: J10 All in
Jason Rocha: A8

Appleton shot out of his seat and pumped his fist after seeing Perez's flopped straight. Rocha was on a flush draw but missed the 2 turn and 2 river as Perez doubled up.

Appleton then admitted he folded two kings. "Not the best flop for kings, especially with five players," Perez told him.
