Steven's Check-Raise Semi-Bluff Gets Through
Level 5
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Sosia Jiang raised from under the gun with A♠J♥ to 15,000 and when it folded to the big blind Brandon Steven, he made the call with 10♦8♦.
Both players checked the 9♣4♦6♣ flop, which brought the A♦ on the turn. Steven checked to Jiang, who overbet for 75,000. Steven then raised to 267,000. Jiang gave it some thought before mucking her hand to give the pot to Steven.
