Perry Ticks Upwards

Ralph Perry just took more than 100,000 chips off of Rifat Palevic without a showdown. Palevic opened preflop with a raise from middle position that Perry called out of the small blind. Both players checked when the dealer spread a flop of {A-Hearts} {j-Clubs} {9-Clubs}.

On the turn {J-Diamonds}, Perry checked again and then called a probing bet of 21,000 from Palevic. The river fell {6-Hearts}, with Perry checking a third time. Palevic took that third check as an invitation to bet 60,000. Perry dwelled on this bet for thirty seconds before raising to 140,000. It was a raise that caused Palevic to muck his hand.

Perry: 400,000
Palevic: 275,000

Tatalovich Doubles Up

From under the gun, Richard Tatalovich raised to 21,000 and Edward Ochana and Jonathan Cantor made the call.

The flop came {K-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} and after a check from Ochana in the big blind, Tatalovich moved all in for 24,000. Ochana folded and Cantor made the call.

Tatalovich: {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}
Cantor: {K-Hearts} {Q-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {5-Hearts}

The board ran out {K-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {A-Diamonds} allowing Tatalovich to double up.

Tatalovich - 114,000
Cantor - 40,000

Marcus Ducks and Dodges to Double Up

We've seen Van Marcus run good before, so it was no surprise to see him run good here today. In a four-way limped pot, Marcus led out for pot (27,000) on a flop of {2-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds}. Action passed to Isaac Baron on the button, who asked for a count on Marcus -- about 100,000 total -- and then raised pot. Marcus called with {2-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {5-Clubs}, a set of deuces. Baron showed down a huge draw, {K-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}, but couldn't hit on the {10-Spades} turn or {K-Spades} river.

Marcus is up to about 200,000. Baron is down to 320,000.
