Rabichow and Leonard Chop; Perez Sends Messere into the Tank

Level 1 : Blinds 300/600, 0 ante

Kevin Rabichow made it 1,500 from the button, and Patrick Leonard, who recently won the SCOOP High leaderboard and his eighth SCOOP title, called from the big blind.

Leonard check-called for 800 on the AQ4 flop before the 2 turn and 9 river checked through to showdown. The duo chopped the pot as Leonard tabled 64 while Rabichow had 54.

On a nearby table, Owen Messere was deep into the tank in a tough river spot. With 7,600 in the pot on the 107573 board, Roberto Perez checked from the big blind. Owen Messere made an overbet of 12,000. Perez sprung into life, raising to 115,000, almost 200 big blinds. Messere agonized for a while, burning up a majority of his time banks before releasing his hand to concede the pot.
