Danchev Catches a Bluff to Double
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Bharath Janardhan raised to 3,500 in middle position, and Dimitar Danchev defended his big blind.
Danchev check-called a bet of 5,000 on an 8♥Q♦2♦ flop, with the Q♥ turn following the same sequence, as Danchev once again check-called a bet of 5,000.
The A♠ completed the board, and when Danchev checked a third time, Janardhan bet enough to cover Danchev's remaining 12,000 stack. Danchev called and tabled A♦8♠, which was worth a double-up, as Janardhan flipped over 7♦4♦ for a missed flush draw.
