Bitar Sniffs Out Taki's Bluff
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Hossien Taki opened to 2,500 from under the gun. Ghassan Bitar called in the cutoff.
Taki bet 2,000 on the flop of 6♦4♠2♥. Bitar called. Bitar called another bet on the 9♦ turn, this time for 9,500.
Taki then moved all in on the 9♠ river for 30,800. Bitar tanked for around a minute and a half before calling emphatically. He showed A♥6♥ for two pair and Taki had Q♠J♥ for a queen-high bluff.
Taki said, "Very good, well done," to his opponent before leaving the tournament area.
