button in SafariWalsh Makes a Big Call to Bust Perry
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Peter Walsh and Alan Perry went to the turn on a board of 2♥5♥6♣7♠ when Walsh bet 16,000 from the button. Perry then moved all in for 103,500 in early position.
Walsh spent several minutes in the tank before calling to put Perry at risk. Perry showed A♣A♦, but Walsh had 2♠2♣ for a set. The river was the 4♣, and Walsh took down the massive pot to send Perry to the rail.
"He doesn't have eight-nine. He might have sevens," Walsh reasoned after the hand as several tablemates complimented him on the call.
