No Bluff From Yong?

Dan O'Hair

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Cassandra Yong was heads-up from the big blind against a lone opponent in early position on a completed board of 4♦Q♦6♥J♣8♣ with approximately 30,000 already in the middle.

Yong announced she was all in for her remaining 18,000 and her opponent folded after a lengthy tank.

Yong didn't show as she collected the pot and said, "If I bluff, I show."

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

Julien Bidault opened to 900 from middle position and was called by Fabian Rolli on the button and Maksym Mamon in the big blind for a three-way pot.

Action checked through on the A♣9♦3♣ flop and Mamon checked again on the 4♦ turn, prompting a 1,500 bet from Bidault. Rolli called and Mamon folded.

Bidault slowed down and checked on the 10♥ river and Rolli bet 9,900 — leaving himself just 100 behind. Bidault asked for a count and tanked a while, but eventually opted to lay his hand down and Rolli dragged the pot.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

The player in the hijack opened to 1,000 and Karo Nuri three-bet to 3,000 on the button. Action folded back around to the initial raiser, who shoved for approximately 23,000 total. Nuri snap-called and a showdown was held.

Hijack: A♠K♥ All in
Karo Nuri: A♥A♣

Nuri found himself on the right end of the preflop cooler, and the 3♦A♦4♠7♥10♥ runout provided him with a sweat-free elimination.

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Heads-up on a flop of 8♠J♦Q♥ with a several thousand already in the middle, Maksym Mamon bet 3,500 and Fabian Rolli called in the cutoff.

Both players checked on the A♦ turn and Mamon bet 7,500 after the 4♦ completed the board. Rolli thought a bit before sticking in a call and Mamon turned over A♥K♦ for a turned pair of aces.

Rolli sent his hand into the muck and Mamon added to his stack.
