Gonzalez Shows the Bluff
Level 14
: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
All the cards were out and the board read 
. Johan Gonzalez (in the small blind position) moved all in against Salvatore Donato (in the big blind position) and Donato went into the tank.
Donato asked Gonzalez whether he would show if Gonzalez folded and he said yes. When Donato open mucked 
, Gonzalez kept his word and turned his hand over to reveal 
for a busted flush draw that he had turned into a bluff.
