Vinayagamoorthy Sniffs Out Goulder's Bluff to Take the Chip Lead
Level 36
: Blinds 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante
David Vinayagamoorthy min-raised the button and Alexander Goulder called from the big blind.
Goulder checked the 3♠9♦8♥ flop, and Vinayagamoorthy put out a continuation-bet of 7,000,000. Goulder quickly check-raised to 20,000,000, which Vinayagamoorthy called.
The 9♥ dropped on the turn and Goulder put out a bet of 13,000,000. Vinayagamoorthy called again.
Goulder shoved on the 6♠ river and Vinayagamoorthy went into the tank. After using a few time banks, Vinayagamoorthy made the call for his tournament life.
David Vinayagamoorthy: 8♦4♣
Alexander Goulder: K♠7♥
Goulder had a total bluff with king-high, and Vinayagamoorthy earned a double-up on the first hand with just a pair of eights.
