Peery Makes a Hero Fold
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Action was picked up midway through the betting preflop. A player in middle position had three-bet all in for 27,000 and Bruce Peery had called from the hijack. Narayan Patel in the big blind then four-bet to 75,000, putting Peery in the tank.
After about 90 seconds Perry folded Q?Q? face up leaving the middle position player all in and at risk against Patel.
Middle Position: A?K?
Narayan Patel: A?A?
Peery had made a great fold as Patel had woken up with the best possible starting hand. The board ran out 5?10?5?7?10?, awarding Patel with a sizable pot. The player in middle position was sent to the rail while Peery lived to fight another day.
