Massive Double as Pardo Catches Julien's Bluff
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
In a heads-up pot on a board of 9♦2♠J♠8♠6♥, Nicolas Julien checked from the small blind and Jorge Pardo bet 18,000. Julien check-jammed to send Pardo deep into the tank as he considered calling off for more than 100,000.
Table mate Parker Talbot called the clock and Pardo called as the seconds wound down. Julien showed a bluff with 4♥4♠ for an underpair and Pardo turned over the winner with J♥9♠ for two pair before burying his head in his hands after making the correct call to take down the massive pot.
