Soceanu Foregoes Bluff
Level 36
: Blinds 100,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Giorgio Soceanu raised to 725,000 in the small blind. Adrian State looked down at his cards in the big blind and made the call.
Soceanu continued for 500,000 on the 10♠8♣A♣ flop, with State flicking in a quick call. The 8♠ turn went check-check, after which the 3♠ river was dealt.
Soceanu debated momentarily but ultimately checked to State, who quickly checked back.
Soceanu tabled 5♠4♦ for five-high, while State comfortably won the pot with his A♦4♠ for top pair.
