Perry KOs Finger and Kharman

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Martin Finger
Martin Finger

In a button on small blind on big blind clash - John Perry, Adam Kharman, and Martin Finger had their stacks in the middle.

Adam Kharman: JJ All in
Martin Finger: QQ
John Perry: A6

Perry had both players covered but the worst of it, with Finger being the big favorite to scoop the big pot. The flop came 8KK, keeping the queens of Finger well in the lead. Perry did pick up a few extra outs on the 6 turn, but it was still Finger's to lose.

When the 6 hit the river, Perry made trips to crack the two big pairs and score a double knockout!
