A Bluff for Nashar

Maxime Taldir

Level 4 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante

After arriving at the table, Hassan Nashar opened to 1,000 from the hijack and was called by Erwann Pecheux in the small blind.

On the 9♦8♦3♣8♣10♥ board, Nashar bet 2,500 on the flop, 5,000 on the turn, and another 5,000 on the river. Pecheux called on the flop and turn but decided to fold on the river.

"Do you want to see my cards?" asked Nashar. Pecheux nodded, and Nashar revealed 5♣2♦ for a bluff.

Craig Hartland raised to 1,100 from the button, but Audrey Verlomme in the small blind three-bet to 4,000. The big blind folded, and Hartland called.

Verlomme bet 2,000 on the J♠4♥5♠ flop. Hartland snap-called, then called again after Verlomme bet 6,000 on the turn 10♥.

The A♣ landed on the river, and Verlomme shoved for 12,600. But this time, Hartland chose to fold.

Level 5 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

2020 WSOP Circuit Marrakech Main Event winner Samiyel Duzgun raised to 800 from the button, and was called by both players in the blinds.

All three of them checked on the J♦3♣9♥ flop, and checked again on the K♥ turn. But when the 4♣ came on the river, Killian Launay in the small blind led out for 1,000. Giovanni Zanette in the big blind called, as well as Duzgun.

First player to reveal his cards, Launay flipped over K♦7♠ for top pair. His two opponents mucked their cards, so he scooped the pot.
