Persistent Persent on the Rise
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
In four-way action to the

Persent then got involved with the

flop, Sexton raised from 2,200 to 4,800 for Persent to call. The

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