Thatcher Catches Dong's Bluff
Level 7
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Action folded around to the blinds, where Jarrod Thatcher called from the small blind and Nelson Dong raised to 5,500 from the big blind. Thatcher called.
Both players checked on the A♠Q♣9♠ flop and 3♣ turn; however, Thatcher put a min-bet of 1,500 out after the Q♥ filled the river.
Dong thought it over before opting to raise to 6,000. Thatcher didn't take long to call and Dong could only turn over 6♥2♣ for a stone bluff.
Thatcher revealed K♠9♥ and took down the pot with his king.
