Perrone Takes from Cierco
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
WSOP bracelet winner Michael Perrone raised in middle position to 50,000, and then met resistance when Anthony Cierco defended his big blind with a call.
The dealer fanned K?5?K? on the flop, which Cierco checked. Perrone bet 25,000, which resulted in Cierco calling.
The 9? appeared on the turn, and Cierco once again checked. Perrone continued his aggression with a 30,000 bet and Cierco called.
The dealer placed 2? on the river. Cierco checked a third time out of the big blind, and then Perrone sized up to a 400,000 bet.
Cierco deliberated his action for a few moments, and then called. Perrone showed K?Q? for trip kings, resulting in Cierco mucking his hand.
