Ori Miller Doubles Through Perica Bukara

When there is action, it comes fast and furious. Ori Miller found himself all in and at risk after a flop of {J-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{3-Spades}.

Miller check-raised all in for 481,000 and Bukara called with {J-Spades}{8-Spades}. Miller was behind with {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} and needed to catch an non-spade ten, queen, king, or ace. The {3-Clubs} turn did not get the job done, but the {A-Hearts} river card sure did, making broadway for Miller.

The board ran out {J-Spades}{10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and Feldman's kings held up to give him the double. He now has about 670,000 in chips while Miller dropped to 550,000.

Bukara Claims Bluff

Andrew Feldman made it 38,000 to go from the button and Perica Bukara called from the big blind. The last time these two did battle, it would up with Feldman hitting a huge double up.

The flop came down {6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} and Bukara checked. Feldman fired 52,000 and Bukara called.

The turn added the {Q-Diamonds} with both players checking to see the {3-Hearts} pair the board on the river, Bukara fired 90,000 and Feldman folded.

"What do you have?" asked Feldman.

"Nothing. Bluff." responded Bukara, who moved back over two million in chips.

Feldman slipped to 700,000.
