Chauskin Catches Zubov Bluffing
Level 9
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
With about 150,000 in the pot on a completed board of Q♣J♠5♣5♦6♦, Natan Chauskin was first to act from the small blind and checked. Alexander Zubov, on the button, put out a bet of 130,000, sending Chauskin into the tank.
After giving it some thought, Chauskin called, and Zubov showed a missed straight draw with K♦10♠. Chauskin tabled A♦J♥ for second pair, and the big pot headed his way.
