Degiulio Cracks Perry's Aces

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Sean Perry had been using his large chip stack to bully around the table, and his opponent started to become non-believers. Perry opened again from middle position and this time Paul Degiulio was the one to defend his big blind.

The flop came {k-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Hearts} and Degiulio checked to Perry who continued for 3,200. Degiulio check-raised to 17,000 and Perry made the call. The turn brought the {7-Clubs} and Degiulio moved all in for 55,200 which was snap-called by Perry.

Degiulio turned over {k-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for two pair and Perry tabled {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}. The {10-Hearts} on the river was safe for Degiulio as he earned a full double up at the hands of Perry.

"I didn't think you were that strong," Degiulio said from across the table. "It's hard to believe you have a hand."

"Sometimes you wake up with a hand," Perry replied as he pushed chips across the table.
