Hutchins Catches Huge Bluff for Double-Up

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Oliver Hutchins
Oliver Hutchins

On a board of 2K610, Oliver Hutchins checked from the small blind to Kevin O'Malley on the button. O'Malley then fired a big over-bet of 9,700 into the pot of 5,500 chips. Hutchins tanked for a bit before confirming the amount and putting in the call.

On the board-completing 10 river, Hutchins checked once more. O'Malley slid in 50,000 chips, enough to put Hutchins all-in. Hutchins thought it over for a while but ended up tossing in a calling chip.

O'Malley showed his A2 for bottom pair, after which Hutchins tabled his KJ for top pair. O'Malley's bluff was caught, leaving him with a stack of roughly 15 big blinds, while Hutchins doubled up to more than two starting stacks.
