Event 10: Felipe Perez Accidentally Eliminates One

$570 Deep Stack No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 20: 5,000/10,000 with a 1,000 ante
Players Remaining: 160 of 2,724

The player under the gun opened with a raise to 115,000, leaving just 3,000 behind. A couple seats over, Felipe Perez failed to notice the action.

“Raise,” Perez said, before putting 20,000 into the pot. The floor was called for a ruling. Since Perez verbalized his action first, he was bound to a minimum raise and forced to make it 220,000 total. He did so with a shrug. “It’s okay, I have a good hand,” he said. The table folded back around to the initial raiser, who committed his last few chips to put himself at risk.

Perez: QhJs
Opponent: 8s8c

The board ran out Jh7d6s4h4c, and Perez won the knockout pot with jacks up.
