Golbuff Loses Some on Failed Bluff

Limit Hold'em

Samuel Golbuff made it two bets from the button and was called by Chris Tryba from the big blind.

The flop came {J-Spades}{4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and Tryba checked to Golbuff, who followed up with a bet. Tryba flatted to see a turn, which came the {8-Spades}. Both players checked, however, Tryba would lead out when a {Q-Diamonds} landed on the river. Golbuff then raised, sending a puzzled look over Tryba. After about 2 minutes of tanking, Tryba tossed in a call and Golbuff turned over {2-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for just five-high. Tryba revealed {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} for queens and fours and scooped the pot.
