Perkins Uses Three Extensions, Can't Find a Fold

Level 7 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Bill Perkins
Bill Perkins

Bill Perkins bet 8,000 into what looked like about 30,000 on a board of {2-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}. His neighbor in the big blind, Fedor Holz, made it 32,000. Perkins called and they saw a {k-Clubs} river. Perkins checked and Holz bet 85,000.

Perkins went deep into the tank, using three of his four time extensions. Finally, he called, but he couldn't beat {6-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for a straight.
