Two in a Row for Perati
Leon Sturm raised to 240,000 in the hijack with A♣Q♠ and was called by Daehyung Lee in the cutoff with 10♦9♦ and Muhamet Perati in the big blind with K♥5♥. The dealer spread the flop of K♠8♥3♥ and the action checked around to the 5♣ on the turn and the 2♠ on the river.
Three more checks and Perati turned over his two pair which was far and away the best hand.
On the next hand, Perati limped in from the small blind with A♥3♣ and Kohei Arai raised to 480,000 in the big blind with 6♣6♦. Perati called and the flop of 9♦3♠3♣ hit the felt.
Perati checked to Arai who continued with a bet of 325,000 and Perati called. The turn brought the A♣ and both players checked to the 2♠ on the river. Perati led out with a small bet of 275,000 and Arai eventually paid him off.
