Persistent Persent on the Rise

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

In four-way action to the {5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop on the feature table, Jon Persent bet 2,000 and was called only by Radoslaw Matyjaszczyk with the {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for an open-ender. Persent held the {q-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a flush draw and paired up on the {q-Spades} turn, betting again to win the pot.

Persent then got involved with the {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs} against Alan Sexton, who remained in contention with the {a-Spades}{5-Spades} in the cutoff. On the {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop, Sexton raised from 2,200 to 4,800 for Persent to call. The {k-Diamonds} fell on the turn and Persent check-jammed when Sexton bet 11,000 for half his stack.

Sexton called it off for 20,300 total with the gutshot and nut flush draw but bricked the {6-Diamonds} river to hit the rail.
