John Perry Eliminated in 22nd Place by Neng Zhao ($20,600)

Level 22: 15,000 / 30,000 ante: 30,000

John Perry

Neng Zhao raises to 60,000 from under the gun and John Perry defends the big blind. Perry check-calls the Q♣ T♣ 3♥ flop and does so again for 135,000 on the 5♦ turn.

The 7♠ appears on the river and Perry checks with around 210,000 behind. Zhao bets350,000 and Perry uses two time bank extensions while glancing over at the tournament info.

Ultimately, Perry calls with the A♣ T♦ and falls to Zhao's K♠ K♦ to become the second casualty of the day.

Jiaxian Pan Gets a Shove Thru

Level 21: 15,000 / 25,000 ante: 25,000

Jiaxian Pan

Yoon Kang raises from under the gun, John "Bert" Perry calls, as does Martin Stausholm on the button. Table short stack Jiaxian Pan defends the big blind and they head four ways to the 8♣ 7♥ 2♣ flop. Only Pan check-calls for 60,000 when Stausholm bets.

They check the J♦ turn and Pan jams the river for 200,000 to earn an instant fold from Stausholm.

John Perry Chips Up

Level 21: 15,000 / 25,000 ante: 25,000

After a rough time grinding at the previous level John Perry has claimed a good pot to chip up to 66 bigs. The hand sees a board Q♦ 2♣ 4♣ A♥ with small blind Amin Riyazati betting 125,000. Perry calls to take it to the river 3♣ . Following a check, Perry bets 200,000, Riyazati calls then mucks to Perry's 5♣ 6♠ straight.

Two in a Row for Sho Homma

Level 19: 10,000 / 15,000 ante: 15,000

Sho Homma

"I should have gone all-in preflop," Paul Hoefer sighs when he bet-folds the river for nearly half his stack and is left on fewer than 20 big blinds. He then adds it was a three-bet pot on which the board shows A♦ 9♦ 3♥ T♣ K♠ . Hoefer bets 190,000 and Sho Homma jams to force a fold from his table neighbour, with Homma exposing the Q♠ .

In the next hand, Jhon Hendri jams for 171,000 and Homma calls with the 7♠ 7♥. Hendri laughs as he exposes the dominated 2♥ 2♣ , which fails to improve on the Q♦ T♦ 4♦ 4♥ 3♥ board.

John Perry Earns Another Knockout

Level 15: 3,000 / 6,000 ante: 6,000

John Perry raises from under the gun and earns callers in Florencio Campomanes as well as Tam Truong.

On the T♥ 6♦ 3♦ flop, the action checks to Campomanes and he bets 21,000. Truong check-raises to 60,000 with around 80,000 behind. Perry moves all-in and Campomanes sigh-folds, Truong calls.

Perry rolls over the 6♠ 6♣ for middle set and Truong is in rough shape with 3♠ 3♣ for bottom set. Nothing changes with the K♥ A♥ on turn and river to see Perry approach seven figures.

Thomas Eychenne Earns a Double Thru Jon Kyte

Level 14: 2,500 / 5,000 ante: 5,000

Thomas Eychenne

Just before the end of the level, Jon Kyte raises to 11,000 and reluctantly calls the shove by Thomas Eychenne for 67,500. The French player has a premium hand in J♦ J♠ and Kyte needs to improve with the A♥ 7♣ .

However, there is no threat for Eychenne on the J♥ 9♠ 3♣ 6♠ K♥ board and he survives.

Georgios Skarparis is not as fortunate as he sends his entire stack over to John "Bert" Perry in the very last hand before the third break on Day 2.

John Perry vs. Egidijus Digrys

Level 6: 400 / 800 ante: 800

John Perry

Three players put in a little more than 20K into the pot to see a flop of Q♦ J♦ 7♦ , and they all check to the turn, which is the A♦ .

Egidijus Digrys checks from UTG+1, the hijack checks, and John Perry bets 7,000 from the cutoff. Digrys calls, and the hijack folds.

The river card pairs the board with the Q♠ , and both players check. Digrys shows 5♠ 5♦ for a five-high diamond flush, but Perry turns over K♦ K♣ to win the pot with a king-high diamond flush.
