May the Banter Begin
Level 1
: 150/300, 0 ante
Jan-Peter Jachtmann raised and Franco Cantarello three-bet to receive and receive a call from Stipo Vladic in the small blind. Jachtmann called and they checked down the flop 
. Vladic then fired the 
turn for 5,000 and Jachtmann called, Cantarella folded. Vladic made it 16,500 to go on the river and his opponent was sent into the think tank.
Jachtmann was suspecting a bluff as later mentioned in table chat but eventually folded. Both players then got into some banter and Vladic laughed back "of course it was a bluff."

turn triggered no betting action before the 
fell on the river.
Jachtmann bet 5,000 and Vladic folded. The german threw over his cards to the other side of the table and the 
was shown. He told the dealer to also reveal his as well and then triumphantly said "yeah, I bluffed Stipo, eight high," with a big grin on the face.
