Troyanovskiy Bluff Catches

Richard Hayes
Richard Hayes
Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Around 20,000 was in the middle already on a completed board of 4♠8♠K♣2♣Q♣, and Vladimir Troyanovskiy checked to his opponent, Oleg Semionov.

Semionov fired out a bet of 30,000, covering the approximately 15,000 stack Troyanovskiy had behind. Troyanovskiy took a good two minutes to think before making the call.

Semionov tabled A♠5♠ having missed his flopped flush draw and turned gutshot, and the pot went to Troyanovskiy after he showed K♠10♥ for top pair kings.

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Mikhail Shalamov raised from late position, Uladzmir Zhyharau three-bet from the button and Shalamov called.

The flop came J♠5♣6♦ and Shalamov checked. Zhyharau bet 2,800 and Shalamov called. The turn was the J♣ and Shalamov checked again. Zhyharau made it 10,200 to go and Shalamov called.

Shalamov checked for a third time on the 7♣ river and Zhyharau opted to move all in for his remaining 17,000. Shalamov wasn't keen and, after a moment of thinking, he folded to give Zhyharau the pot.

Nicolas Chouity opened the hijack to 1,400 and Dmitry Zakharov called from the cutoff before Kenny Hallaert three-bet from the big blind to 7,000. Chouity then put in a four-bet to 14,000, which got Zakharov to fold, then Hallaert was left with a decision.

"I'm not folding," said Chouity.

"I know," replied Hallaert, who then shoved for around 25,000 total. Chouity quickly called.

Kenny Hallaert: A♣Q♠ All in
Nicolas Chouity: 10♣10♠

It was a classic flip and Hallaert took the lead on the 3♥A♥7♦ flop, as he paired his ace. An 8♦ on the turn didn't change anything, and neither did the 6♥ river, which meant Hallaert doubled up.
