Johnnie "Vibes" Gets a Bluff Through

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

With a bit over 20,000 in the middle on a completed board of {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}, Johnnie Moreno moved all in for his last 21,000 from middle position to put his opponent, Nabil Zumout to a decision on the button.

After about a minute of deliberation, Zumout folded {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} face up, asking Moreno if he had sevens.

Moreno obliged, showing the {7-Spades}, then turning over the {8-Spades} to go with it for a stone airball bluff that earned him the pot.

Moreno Calls Two Streets But Can't Call Three (With Threes)

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Andrew Moreno raised to 700 on the button and was three-bet to 3,300 by Kevin O'Donnell in the small blind.

Moreno called to see a flop of {4-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Spades} and O'Donnell continued for 2,500, which Moreno called.

On the {5-Diamonds} turn O'Donnell sized up to 7,800, but again Moreno tossed in calling chips.

The river brought the {9-Clubs} and O'Donnell stacked up his remaining 16,100 and pushed it forward.

Moreno told O'Donnell he couldn't call, then showed him his {3-Hearts}{3-Spades} before tossing them into the muck.
