Perry's on a Roll

On a board showing {K-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{9-Hearts}, an opponent moved all in against Perry Friedman for 38,400.

Perry provided some insightful commentary while considering his play:

"Pass or don't pass..."

"I think I might be ahead..."

"This is sick!"

"I call."

Perry's read was dead-on. His opponent turned over the {K-Spades}{10-Diamonds}, for top pair with a ten kicker and Perry pumped his fist realizing he was ahead, showing {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}, for top pair, queen kicker, with the second-nut flush draw.

The {A-Hearts} on the turn put the icing on the cake for Perry, who brought his stack past the 100K mark on the hand.
