Using Your Imagination

We just witnessed a pretty impressive bluff by Tom Middleton as the expense of Matt Schwarmann.

It was a {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} flop where Schwarmann checked to Middleton who bet 6,500. Schwarmann then announced a raise to 20,000. Middleton deliberated for about two minutes before shoving all in for around 50,000. It was a huge pot but Schwarmann instantly released his hand into the muck as Middleton flashed {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} for nothing but imagination!

Middleton is up over 75,000 with Schwarmann a little grumpy on 60,000.
