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.
