Perkins Headed Back in the Right Direction

Level 2 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Bill Perkins has been extremely active here in the first two levels. However, it doesn't seem to be working as he was the first to bust, reenter, and then start losing again. Thankfully for him, he just won a nice pot.

It happened when Isaac Baron opened for 3,500 from early position and then called when Perkins three-bet to 10,000 from the big blind. the {8-Spades}{10-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop saw Perkins lead out for 10,000, Baron call, and the {9-Hearts} appear on the turn. Baron called another bet, this time 28,000, and the {K-Diamonds} completed the board on the river.

Perkins fired for a third time, putting out 53,000, and Baron agonized over what to do before making the call.

"I think I had you the whole way," Perkins said as he rolled over the {k-Clubs}{k-Spades} for a set. It was good as Baron flung his cards to the muck.
