Steeves Shows the Big Bluff

Level 5 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Adam Johnson raised to 2,200 in middle position and an opponent in the cutoff called. Vaughn Steeves then three-bet to 11,500 in the small blind, and only Johnson called.

The flop came 9♣Q♣3♠ and Steeves bet 7,000. Johnson called, and the A♣ fell on the turn.

Steeves then bet 10,100, and Johnson again called. Steeves slowed down and checked the Q♦ river, and Johnson then bet 32,000.

Steeves tanked for a few minutes before raising to 100,000, and Johnson also took a minute but eventually gave up his hand. Steeves showed 9♠6♠ as he took the pot.
