Powell Bluffs it Off to "Scratch"

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Thao "Scratch" Thiem bet 10,800 from the cutoff after Reg Powell checked from early position on a {j-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop. Powell shoved all of his chips in. Thiem asked for a count of the raise. It was 46,200 more. He tanked for about three minutes and pushed in enough chips to call.

Thiem: {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Powell: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Thiem had caught Powell on a stone cold bluff, but the {8-Hearts} gave him a chance with a backdoor straight draw. The {6-Clubs} river was a blank though, and Powell silently exited as Thiem dragged the big pot.
