Vuilleumier Snap-Calls Daher
Level 7
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Alexandre Vuilleumier opened to 12,000 from the hijack and Albert Daher three-bet to 38,000 from the cutoff. Vuilleumier made the call.
The flop came 2♠2♦4♣ and Vuilleumier check-called a 20,000 continuation bet from Daher.
Vuilleumier check-called another bet on the 6♦ turn, this time for 55,000.
On the 3♣ river Vuilleumier checked again and Daher moved all in, covering Vuilleumier's remaining stack of 218,000. Vuilleumier nearly beat Daher into the pot.
Albert Daher could only show A♠8♠ for a stone bluff while Vuilleumier tabled 5♣5♠ for a rivered straight to secure a full double up, dealing a major blow to Daher's stack in the process.
