Bluffing Joe Hachem

Hachem ponders a call...
Hachem ponders a call...
Joe Hachem limped from the button. The small blind raised to 3,700. Hachem re-raised to 8,100. The small blind jammed and moved all in for 38,200. Hachem went into the tank and stared his opponent down. The player sat motionless and didn't make a move while Hachem deliberated a call. Hachem leaned back in his chair and shuffled his chips. He tried to get a read on his opponent. He finally mucked.

Hachem's opponent showed his bluff and tabled {6-Spades}{4-Spades}.
