Eminoglu Almost Makes a Hero Call
Heads-up on a board of 4♥A♣6♠A♠ and with 30,000 already in the pot, Daniel Laidlaw bet 24,000 from the cutoff.
"Hmm," Yucel Eminoglu said as he turned around to take a bite of his pizza and consider the decision. He eventually called and the river came the 7♣.
Laidlaw then moved all in for 69,400. "I don't even have a pair. I think you are bluffing," Eminoglu said as he went deep into the tank.
Several minutes went off the clock as Eminoglu continued to talk. "I swear that's a bluff. I'm trying to get myself to call this hand. I can beat king-jack, king-ten," he said.
"I'm going to let you have it," he eventually said, sliding his cards into the middle. Laidlaw let him choose one of his cards, and Eminoglu turned over the Q♥.
"King-queen. I knew it," Eminoglu yelled out.
