Ahuja Goes for It All
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
The under-the-gun player raised to 2,500, Graeme Newman three-bet to 7,500 in the cutoff, and Ankit Ahuja cold four-bet to 15,000 on the button. Under the gun got out of the way and Newman called.
The flop came 6♥5♠5♦ and Newman check-called a bet of 11,000 from Ahuja. The turn fell the 8♣ and Newman check-called again, this time for 20,000.
On the 3♦ river, Newman checked for a third time and Ahuja moved all in for 57,500 to put himself at risk. Clearly faced with a tough decision, Newman went into the tank.
"Show me the bluff," said Newman as he tossed his cards into the muck.
Ahuja responded with a smirk.
"That's a smile that says bluff," muttered Newman.
