Sakarya Sniffs Out Kain's Bluff
Level 7
: Blinds 800/1,500, 1,500 ante
On a completed board of 9♠8♠5♠2♦3♠, Yaser Sakarya was first to act from the small blind and elected to check. Ori Kain from the big blind, jammed, covering Sakarya.
The bet was for all of Sakarya's remaining 39,000, and it caused Sakarya to go into deep thought. During the three-minute tank, Kain kept his eyes locked on Sakarya and barely blinked.
In the end, Sakarya slammed down the call. Kain revealed a bluff with A♣6♣ and lost the pot to Sakarya's 8♣8♥ for a set of eights.
