Pollak Flummoxed By Bauer

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

Kevin Pollak raised to 1,400 from under the gun, and only Thomas Bauer in the big blind called.

Both players checked the {6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} flop, and Bauer bet 2,500 on the {7-Hearts} turn. Pollak called.

Bauer bet 4,500 on the {10-Hearts} river, sending Pollak deep into the tank.

"Your story is that you flopped a flush?" Pollak asked Bauer. "If you don't have a flush, you lose."

Bauer remained nonplussed, even after Pollak took a few moments to stare Bauer down. A few minutes passed before a clock was called, and with a few seconds left on the clock, Pollak folded {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} faceup. Bauer mucked without showing and took down the pot.
