Pham Gets Caught Bluffing

Adam Lamers

Level 25 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Ryan Otto opened to 65,000 in the hijack with K♣Q♥ and was called by Hong Pham on the button with J♠7♠ and Dave Mcconachie in the big blind with A♣10♣. The flop came A♥Q♦9♣ and the action checked to Pham who bet 60,000. Both Mccconachie and Otto stuck around after flopping pairs.

The turn brought the 5♠ and the action checked around to the K♠ on the river. Mcconachie and Otto checked again and Pham took a shot witha bet of 360,000. Mcconachie called and Otto laid down the best hand. Mcconachie's pair of aces was enough to catch Pham bluffing and he moved into second place.

The action folded to Raymond Caabay on the button who raised to 60,000 with 5♥5♦. Smit Trivedi woke up with K♦J♦ in the big blind and shoved all in for 495,000 which got a fold from Caabay.

On the next hand, Tobias Kirby Hogarty raised to 60,000 on the button with K♥10♣ and Trivedi reraised to 160,000 with K♣J♦. Kirby Hogarty folded and Trivedi collected another pot.

Following that, Kirby Hogarty made it 60,000 in the cutoff with A♦4♥ and Trivedi responded with another three-bet to 160,000 with 10♠10♣. The rest of the table folded and Trivedi laughed as he picked up some more chips.

Level 24 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Paul Nugent raised to 225,000 from under the gun, leaving himself with just 30,000 chips behind. Tobias Kirby reraised from the big blind and the rest of Nugent's chips went in the middle.

Paul Nugent: J♠10♣
Tobias Kirby: Q♦J♣

Nugent found himself in an uphill battle and the flop of A♠6♥6♦ was no help. The 2♦ on the turn gave a few chop outs but the 5♥ on the river was not meant to be for Nugent.

The flop came K♦J♣4♣ and Obadun picked up a straight draw to go with his two over cards. The 7♠ on the turn gave Trivedi a set of sevens but Obadun gained more straight outs. The river was the 9♣ and Trivedi held on for a double up.
