Perez Spikes Ace
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
It was a clash of the blinds as Dawid Smolka and Roger Perez collided in an all-in hand with Perez at risk during the early stage of Day 2.
Roger Perez: A♠K♦
Dawid Smolka: K♠K♥
Perez was in trouble against Smolka's kings, but that all changed in a hurry when the 2♥4♠A♣ flop came to reverse the tables against Smolka.
The 6♦ turn and the 3♣ river completed the board as Perez found new life after hitting his ace.
