Blanc Looks Up Persent's Bluff
Level 31
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Jon Persent made it 600,000 to go from the small blind with the K♦Q♣ and Alexandre Blanc came along with Q♥8♦ out of the big blind.
They headed to the 8♣4♣2♣ flop on which Persent bet 600,000, Blanc called. The same action repeated on the 10♥ turn for 1,300,000 and that led them to the 2♦ river.
Persent fired a third barrel for 2,200,000 to send Blanc into the tank. Blanc called at the end of his shot clock and took over the lead at the end of the level before the final four went on the next scheduled 15-minute break.
