Peretz Can't Beat Bako's Nines
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Yaniv Peretz opened to 2,500 on the button and Mazalahedwa Bako three-bet to 9,600 out of the small blind. When the action got back to Peretz, he called.
A flop of 2♣5♦8♣ fell on the table and Peretz check-called a bet of 8,000 from Bako to the J♥ turn. Both players checked, as they did on the 7♣ river.
Bako was first to show and flipped a pair of nines holding 9♥9♦, which was enough to win the pot as Peretz mucked.
