"Do You Know Who I Am?" Action Heats Up

Level 13 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

There was a five-way limped pot at the outer table that saw Sean Perry betting 20,000 on the flop of 2♠10♠6♠ and getting called by Adrian Mateos and Jesse Lonis.

Perry then bet 40,000 on the 6♥ turn and both opponents folded.

The pot was small, but action is heating up in the PokerGO Studio as Perry got into it with Nicholas Palma on the way back from break. Earlier, Palma had joked that Perry was making it easier for Adrian Mateos to win the Purple Jacket "with you at the table."

"Brother, do you know who I am? I won the $50k (in 2022)," Perry told Palma. "I was the third ranked player in the world."

Daniyal Gheba raised in middle position and Anil Jivani three-bet jammed for 80,000 from late position. Gheba called.

Jivani stayed ahead as the board ran out 9♦Q♣10♠8♦7♠ to give both players straights but Jivani the better straight.

During and after the hand, Gheba got an earful from Daniel Negreanu, who later called for shots for the table.

"What did you think he had?" Negreanu asked. "That's disrespecting the game!"
