" I Won't Bluff this Pot, I Swear"
Not long ago Norah Greer picked off a bluff from Antonio "The Magician" Esfandiari that proved rather entertaining. Now, Esfandiari has exacted a little revenge.
It happened when an unknown player opened for 700 from the hijack and Esfandiari three-bet to 1,500 from the button. Greer called from the big blind, the original raiser folded, and it was heads-up action to the ![]()
![]()
flop.
"You and me again?" Esfandiari asked. "I'm a little scared. I won't bluff this pot, I swear."
Greer check-called a bet of 3,000, and then both players checked the
turn. When the
peeled off on the river, Greer checked for a third time and then made a quick call after Esfandiari bet 4,400. Greer tabled ![]()
for two pair, but it was no good as Esfandiari held ![]()
for a straight.
