McMahon Gets Value for Bluff
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Action was on the river on a board of 8♣J♠9♣7♥4♣. Jerome Finck checked and Gareth McMahon moved all in for around 22,000, an overbet into a small pot of just a few thousand chips.
Finck went into the tank before making the call. McMahon showed A♣8♦ for a pair of eights that he'd turned into a bluff. Finck flipped over Q♥7♠ for a pair of sevens, an attempt to catch the bluff but with the worse hand.
"What the f*ck!", said McMahon as he scooped the pot, "You can't call there!"
