Nikitin puts Luo to the Test
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Anatoly Nikitin opened to 100,000 from the hijack with K♦10♥ and Shuang Luo defended from the big blind with 5♥5♠.
The flop came 9♣6♥3♥ and Shuang check-called a 150,000 continuation bet from Nikitin.
Both players checked the 7♦ turn leading to the 9♦ river. Nikitin moved all in, covering Luo's remaining stack of 960,000. Luo thought for roughly 30 seconds before folding and Nikitin was awarded a nice pot for the succesful bluff.
