Persson of Interest

Nick Yunis and Simon Persson are playing more than the odd pot against each other, suffice to say I would reckon that only one of them is going to be left standing by the end of this day.

In one hand, Yunis bet a chunky-looking 9,600 on the river of a {9-Spades}{7-Clubs}{3-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{2-Clubs} board and Persson made the call but couldn't beat the Chilean's {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}.

A couple of hands later and they were at it again, Persson check-calling bets of 1,300, 3,500 and finally 5,800 on a board of {9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} - 'King' said Yunis, turning over {K-Spades}{7-Hearts} but Persson flipped {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for aces up to win back some of the previously lost chips.
