Perez Climbing

From early position, Juan Jose Perez raised to 17,000. He got a call from the cutoff seat and also Robert Van Thuyh in the big blind before the flop came down {K-Spades}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs}. After Van Thuyh checked, Perez fired 25,000. The cutoff seat called and Van Thuyh folded.

The turn was the {4-Spades} and Perez stayed on the gas with a bet of 51,000. His opponent had 166,000 behind and elected to fold after a few minutes of thought. Perez won the pot and moved to over 360,000 in chips.
