White Shows a Huge Bluff; Leaves Mcguire Short
Blinds: 2,000/4,000/4,000
Tom Mcguire limped on the button and Andrew White checked his option.
White checked to Mcguire, who bet 4,000 on the Q♣2♥10♦ flop. White then check-raised to 15,000 and Mcguire called.
Mcguire called a 20,000 barrel from White on the 8♠ turn and then White announced he was all in on the 5♦ river, which was enough to put Mcguire all in for his last 70,000.
Mcguire tanked for several minutes, appearing to go back-and-forth on his decision multiple times before finally tossing his hand into the muck.
White triumphantly turned over 9♥6♦ for a stone bluff and Mcguire could only nod his head in acknowledgment as White has taken a commanding lead in the match.
