Kiem Picks off the Bluff

Level 15 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Paul Kiem
Paul Kiem

Action folded around to Lara Eisenberg in the small blind who completed, and Paul Kiem checked in the big blind.

The flop came 2♠K♥8♣ and both players checked to the Q♠ turn.

Eisenberg bet 7,500 and Kiem called, bringing the 5♥ river.

Eisenberg sized up with a bet of 21,000 and Kiem thought for a moment before making the call.

Eisenberg showed J♣9♠ for a busted straight draw and Kiem tabled 8♦6♠ to scoop the pot with a pair of eights.
