Wang Picks Off a Bluff
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
With two players seeing a board of 8♦8♥8♣ and roughly 2,600 in the middle, Yuhan Wang bet 1,000 from middle position and Farias Branco raised to 3,100 from the button. Wang made the call.
Both players then checked the A♠ turn leading to the 10♣ river. Branco bet 5,500 and after taking a minute to weigh his options, Wang once again opted to call.
Branco could only show K♣J♥ for a bluff while Wang tabled a full house with 9♦9♣ to take the pot.
