Roberts Shows a Bluff
Level 9
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
In the last level, numerous players saw a 
flop for 2,000 apiece and Shawn Roberts bet 3,300 in middle position. Action folded to Niel Mittelman, who called from early position and they saw a 
turn heads up. Mittelman checked and Roberts sized down to 1,700. Mittelman called and the river was the 
. Mittelman checked again and Roberts bet 15,000.
After some thought and some table talk from Mittelman that we couldn't hear, he mucked. Roberts flicked 
into the middle and dragged the pot.

good for a leading pair. The river was the 
and Schutten was barely covered, so he hit the rail again.
From the chatter after the hand, it sounded like Schutten shoved over a turn bet.
