Perez Doubles Through Marcus

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Claudio Falcaro opened the pot with a raise to 21,000 from middle position and Edward Marcus popped it to 60,000 from the cutoff. A short-stacked Christoher Perez stuck in his remaining 38,000-ish into the middle, resulting in a fold from Falcaro.

Marcus: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Perez: {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

Things looked bleak for Perez, but the board ran out {Q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} to bring him back in the game with about 110,000. Marcus slipped to roughly 230,000.
