Hunter Shows the Bluff
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Action went three-ways to a flop of 9♠5♥3♠ in a hand between the player in middle position, Thomas Karle on the button, and Paul Hunter in the small blind.
It checked around to Karle who put out a nearly pot-sized bet of 8,000. Hunter and middle position both called.
On the 3♦ turn, Hunter moved all in for 23,700 to put himself at risk, prompting middle position to fold and Karle to go into the tank.
"Got a spade draw?" asked Hunter.
"And a straight draw," replied Karle.
Karle ultimately decided to fold his hand, tabling 8♠7♠. Hunter showed 6♣4♣ as he dragged in the pot.
