button in SafariBarba Picks Off the Bluff
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Action folded to Victor Dai on the button who raised to 25,000 and was called by Patrick Barba in the big blind.
The flop came J♦9♠7♣ and Barba check-called a bet of 30,000 from Dai.
Both players checked the 8♣ on the turn, to see the K♠ on the river. Barba then checked a third time, before Dai bet out 90,000.
Barba took some time, using one, time extension before making the call. Dai tabled 3♥3♦ for just a pair of threes, and Barba turned over the winner with A♣8♦ to take the pot with his pair of eights.
