Hulme Catches Big Bluff
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
Andrew Hulme sat in the small blind and checked to his opponent Maher Achout on a turn of 9♣9♦10♦5♦. Achour then bet 3,500 into a pot of the same size, and Hulme made the call.
The 10♠ river double-paired the board and Achour fired again, this time for 9,000. Hulme did not take long before he put in another check-call.
Achour could only show 8♥7♥ for an eight-high kicker, while Hulme turned over A♦J♦ for a turned flush to rake in the pot.
