Fraser Almost Gets Bluff Through

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

In a three-way pot on K♦Q♣Q♥, action was checked through to the 3♦ turn, where an opponent led out from middle position with a bet of 1,500, which only Fraser called.

The 7♥ river completed the board, and Fraser's opponent checked, prompting Fraser to fire out a bet of 9,500. After around two minutes of thought, his opponent made the call after a fold from the big blind.

Fraser tabled J♠9♠ for the missed straight draw, and his opponent had found the call with A♦K♣ for two pair, kings and queens.

"Almost?" enquired Fraser as his opponent raked in the pot, who smiled and nodded.
