Puccini Pops Perrault

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

Pascal Perrault raised to 5,500 and one opponent called, then Mario Puccini reraised to 23,000. It folded back to Perrault who called as did the third player. The flop came {5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, and it checked to Puccini who pushed all in for 20,900. Perrault, who barely had Puccini covered, pushed his chips in the middle as well, and the third player folded.

Perrault needed some runner-runner help, showing {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades} to Puccini's {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. But the turn was the {K-Spades} and river the {2-Clubs}, and Puccini pushed up past 85,000. Meanwhile, Perrault was down to just 1,500 after that one, and busted soon after.
