Becker Catches Kerbel Bluffing
Level 18
: Limits 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
Three ways to the 9♦7♥3♠ flop, James Chen bet and Jay Kerbel raised. Johannes Becker made it three bets to force out Chen while Kerbel four-bet and earned a call from Becker.
Both checked the J♦ turn and Becker also checked the K♠ river. Kerbel bet and Becker called after 30 seconds to get shown the A♣10♣6♣3♣ by Kerbel, which was beaten by Becker's A♦9♣4♠2♠ for just a pair of nines.
