Two Under-21 Year Olds Still in the Field

As has been the custom here in Florida, where the legal gambling age is 18 years old (in most of the United States it’s 21), there is a bonus prize for the longest-lasting under-21 year old in the field.

bestbet Jacksonville is once again giving away a customized surfboard, and there are two under-21 year olds left in the field: Ian O’Hara and Alan Percal.

As the two under-21 contenders were announced to the crowd, Percal was playing a hand against Benjamin Zamani.

With the board showing [Jh10h4s3s] on the turn, Percal bets 3,600 from the big blind, and Zamani calls from the cutoff. The river card pairs the board with the [3h], Percal bets 9,600, and Zamani tanks for a couple of minutes before he folds, showing one card — the [4h]. Percal takes the pot.

Alan Percal  –  66,000  (55 bb)
Benjamin Zamani  –  48,000  (40 bb)

Ian O’Hara  –  108,000  (90 bb)
