Nemeth Calls River Bluff
Level 22
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Andras Nemeth completed his option and Michail Manolakis raised to 210,000 from the big blind, which Nemeth called. The hand started slow with both players checking on the 2♣2♥J♥ flop.
Manolakis then fired out a large bet of 245,000 on the 8♥ turn and Nemeth called. The river was the 5♣ and Manolakis led again, this time for 450,000. Nemeth made the call.
"You got me," said Manolakis, who turned over Q♦9♠ for a bluff. Nemeth had Q♠8♣ for a pair of eights, two pair with the deuces on board, a strong enough hand to win him the pot and put him firmly back in first position.
