The flop came {9-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and Strelitz was drawing to one out with a jack already folded. The {5-Spades} on the turn paired the board and the {k-Clubs} on the river improved Nolet to a full house to score a double up.

Strelitz Runs a Massive Bluff

Level 35 : 1,500,000/3,500,000, 3,500,000 ante

Daniel Strelitz opened to 7 million from under the gun with {a-Hearts}{8-Spades} and Guillaume Nolet defended from the big blind with {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}. The flop fell {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{3-Spades} and Nolet check-called a bet of 11 million from Strelitz.

The turn was the {9-Spades} and Guillaume checked again and Strelitz checked behind. The {q-Hearts} on the river gave Nolet a straight and he led out for 15 million. Strelitz thought for a moment and then jammed all in, putting Nolet to the test for his remaining 90 million chips.

Nolet burned through his time extensions and then elected to lay his hand down. Strelitz showed the {8-Spades} and Nolet knew he made a bad fold.
