Periaux Makes the Right Call
Level 2
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
A player on the button opened to 2,000 before Ludovic Periaux three-bet to 7,000 from the small blind. Mark Smith called from the big blind and the original raiser called.
The flop came 10♦9♦2♥. Periaux bet 8,000, Smith called and the button got out of the way.
Periaux continued for 15,000 on the 8♣ turn and Smith raised to 31,300. Periaux made the call.
On the J♠ river Periaux checked and Smith moved all in, covering Periaux who had around 30,000 behind. Periaux thought for about a minute before making the call.
Smith showed A♥9♠ for third pair turned into a bluff while Periaux had a set with 10♠10♥ and doubled up through Smith.
