Puczylowski Bluffs Into Jalba

Level 13 : Blinds 1,500/3,500, 3,500 ante
Eusebiu Jalba
Eusebiu Jalba

Eusebiu Jalba opened from the hijack to 7,000 and Marcin Puczylowski made a three-bet of 31,000 out of the small blind. When it got back to Jalba, he called.

They both saw a flop of 10J6 where Puczylowski made a big continuation-bet of 51,000. Jalba took some time, counted out his stack, then made the call.

A 5 on the turn was checked by both players to the board-pairing 5 river, where Puczylowski grabbed a bunch of white chips, worth 25,000 each, and fired out 125,000. Jalba went back to his stack and started counting, then after around a minute, he tossed in the call.

Puczylowski immediately showed KQ for a busted open-ender, and Jalba flipped AJ for a pair of jacks to scoop the pot.
