Perkusic Eliminates Harthcock
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Noah Harthcock limped from early position, which led to a limp by Craig Jones in the small blind.
Daniel Perkusic checked his option to bring the J♣J♦Q♠ flop.
All three players knuckled the flop to bring the 5♠ turn. Jones bet 35,000 and was called by Perkusic. Harthcock pumped it up to 110,000 in response. Jones folded, but Perkusic put enough chips in to put Harthcock all-in. Harthcock called to put himself at risk for 410,000.
Noah Harthcock: A♠A♣K♠10♣5♣
Daniel Perkusic: Q♦Q♥6♣4♥3♥
Perkusic had Harthcock in treacherous waters as he flopped a full house and was well ahead as Harthcock was drawing to a two outer.
Harthcock could not connect on the 8♣ river as Perkusic took down the pot.
