Bjorkheim Catches Suominen Bluffing
Level 25
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Keimo Suominen raised the button to 225,000 with the A♣6♥ and Anders Bjorkheim defended the big blind with Q♠2♠. They checked the J♥9♠8♥ flop and Bjorkheim led the J♠ turn when he added a flush draw to his gutshot. Suominen called the 260,000 with his ace and Bjorkheim hit an unlikely out with the 2♦ on the river.
Bjorkheim put a blocker bet of 125,000 and Suominen opted for a raise to 475,000, turning his ace-high into a bluff. The reluctant call by Bjorkheim followed and the Norwegian won the pot.
