Dowling Good at Showdown
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Around 12,000 was in the middle on a board of 7♣7♠3♣5♠2♠ in a hand between Giuliano Bendinelli in early position and Chris Dowling in the big blind.
Dowling led out with a bet of 8,000, only to be faced with a raise to 33,000 by Bendinelli. After some thought, Dowling made the call.
Bendinelli showed A♠10♥ for an ace-high bluff, while Dowling had 8♦7♥ for trip sevens, sending him the pot.
