Peperone Reverses the Cooler on Meyers

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

After an open to 12,000 and a three-bet to 31,000, Chris Meyers min four-bet to 56,000 only to see Nick Peperone cold five-be jam for about 160,000. The action folded back around to Meyers who snap-called putting himself at risk for about 130,000 total.

Nick Peperone: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Chris Meyers: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}

Unfortunately for Meyers, a queen dropped on the flop of a {6-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{9-Spades} board and the cooler was reversed to send Meyers to the rail.
