Gogniat, Bilger Get Away With Bluffs
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Heads up on a flop of 9♥9♠6♦, Zdenek Zizka bet 55,000 from middle position and Thierry Gogniat called in the big blind.
Zizka bet another 95,000 on the 8♠ turn, and Gogniat again called. The river was the 5♥, and Gogniat led out for 300,000. Zizka folded, and Gogniat showed him Q♥J♦ as he took the pot.
Raphael Bilger then raised to 80,000 on the button, and Mitch Garshofsky called in the big blind.
Both players checked the 2♠10♦8♣ flop. Garshofsky led out for 175,000 on the 3♦ turn, and Bilger called.
The river was the Q♥, and Garshofsky checked to Bilger, who moved all in for 1,420,000. Garshofsky folded, and Bilger showed 5♠4♠ as Casimir Seire and Zizka at the other end of the table burst out laughing.
