Chewy Picks Off Coleman's Bluff
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
David Coleman opened with a raise to 4,500 from middle position and was called by Andrew Lichtenberger in the big blind.
After the flop came 7♠8♣K♣ Lichtenberger check-raised Coleman's bet of 5,000 to 17,500. Coleman made the call.
The turn was the 5♠ and Coleman called a bet of 36,000 from Lichtenberger.
Lichtenberger checked to Coleman after the 10♠ on the river, and Coleman took some time before betting 82,000, leaving just 500 behind. Lichtenberger wasted no time and flicked in a chip to call.
Coleman turned over 5♣4♣ for a pair of fives and missed flush draw, but Lichtenberger had the winner with K♠8♦ for two pair, kings and eights.
