Barthe Picks Off Gocer's Bluff

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Didier Barthe raised to 300 from middle position and got a call before Alper Gocer three-bet to 1,000 from the button. Only Barthe called and action went to the flop, which came 63Q. Barthe checked, Gocer bet 1,600 and Barthe called.

The turn was the 2 and Barthe checked again. Gocer made it 1,600 to go and Barthe called. On the K river, Barthe checked for a third time and Gocer sized up to 4,000. Barthe made what would turn out to be a pretty heroic call.

Gocer showed A9 for a complete bluff. Barthe picked off the bluff with 99, which was enough to win him the pot.
