Tran Picks Off McSwiney's Bluff
Level 14
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Henry Tran opened from under the gun to 16,000 and Joshua McSwiney peeled out of the big blind.
The flop came down 5♦2♠4♠ and McSwiney led out for 12,000, which Tran called to see the 2♥ on the turn.
Both tapped the table to see the A♥ drill the river, and McSwiney fired an overbet of 80,000. Tran went into the tank for quite some time before he eventually decided to call.
McSwiney then revealed a bluff with 8♣7♦, and Tran's A♣Q♥ was good with a rivered pair of aces.
