Great Turn of Events

Christopher Perez and Kevin Brantner butted heads recently at Table 4.

Perez opened to 3,500 from early position and action folded to Brantner on the button who re-raised to 10,000. Perez called and the flop fell {A-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{4-Hearts}.

Both players checked and then Perez insta shoved after the {10-Diamonds} was dealt on the turn.

“Frickin’ frick,” Brantner muttered. “I hate this table.”

Brantner eventually folded {K-}{K-} face up and Perez showed him {10-}{10-} for a turned set of tens.

“Running good there ‘Michigan’,” a player jarred.

Perez has picked up the nickname ‘Michigan’ because of his Michigan Wolverines hat and he’s also picked up a nice stack of 50,000 chips. Brantner on the other hand slipped below 20,000 chips.
