Perez Takes His Showdown

Level 12
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
The under-the-gun player opened the action with a raise to 32,000. Ian Matakis three-bet to 88,000 from the hijack before Roberto Perez put in the four-bet to 155,000 from the cutoff. Matakis made the call.
The flop came down 8?3?2? and Perez continued for 125,000. Matakis made the call.
The turn 4? peeled off and action went check-check. Players checked the 10? river as well and Matakis tabled A?8? but it was no good against Perez' Q?Q?. Perez dragged in a sizeable pot, making him the table chip leader.
