Dante Peykar Knocks Out a Player to Rebound to 183K

Sep 20, 2019

Two players put in nearly 5,000 each to see a flop of Diamond JClub 9Heart 7. Dante Peykar bets 6,000 from middle position, the player in the cutoff raises to 20,000, and Peykar calls.

The turn card is the Diamond 8, and Peykar moves all in for about 77,000. The player in the cutoff tanks for a while before he calls all in with a little bit less and shows Heart KHeart J for a pair of jacks.

But Peykar turns over Diamond 10Diamond 5 for a turned jack-high straight, and the player in the cutoff can only catch a ten on the river to stay alive with a chopped pot.

The river card is the Club Q, and Peykar wins the pot with a queen-high straight to eliminate his opponent from Day 1A.
