Level 4
: 100/200, 200 ante
Eli Ross was in the hijack and opened to 600. Mrityunjay Jha called from the cutoff and Adam Demersseman put in a three-bet to 3,200 from the button. Ross confirmed the amount and went into the tank for a bit. After a few moments, he put out a four-bet to 9,700.
Jha quickly folded to put action back on Demersseman, who took about 20 seconds to count some of his chips before sending his cards to the muck. Ross then looked back at his cards as he awaited the pot.
"Show the bluff," prodded Demersseman. Ross sent his cards forward face down and stacked his newly-earned chips.
