Dunaway Takes a Hit; Stacks Even Out
Braxton Dunaway opened to 400,000 from under the gun and Yaniv Peretz three-bet to 1,000,000 on the button. Dunaway called and the pair saw a 2♦6♠A♣ flop. Peretz bet 550,000 and Dunaway quickly mucked.
In the next hand the pair went heads-up again after Peretz made a 400,000 open from under the gun and Dunaway defended his big blind. A Q♥3♥9♣ flop saw Dunaway check-fold after Peretz bet 600,000.
Erwann Pecheux then opened to 400,000 from under the gun and Briant Alavez called on the button. The J♥5♦9♠ flop was check-called by Pecheux after Alavez bet 300,000. A 8♥ turn prompted both to check to see the 10♠ river. The pair made no further bets and checked to showdown with Alavez taking the pot with K♦J♦ for a pair of jacks, having the pair of nines of Peretz beat with K♠9♦.
