Johnson Picks Off Perrier's Bluff
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Daniel Perrier opened to 21,000 from middle position and was called by Marco Johnson on the button and Brian Yoon in the big blind.
On the 10?9?2? flop, the action checked to Johnson who bet 42,000 and only Perrier called.
The 8? turn checked through to the 4? river which saw Perrier lead for 120,000, just over three-quarters pot. Johnson deliberated for a while and used a time bank before he tossed in the call.
Daniel Perrier: K?Q?
Marco Johnson: 7?7?
Perrier was bluffing while Johnson made an impressive call with effectively fourth pair to drag a sizeable pot.
