Steinberg Bluffs It Off

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

Max Steinberg and his {5-Diamonds}{4-Spades} had put out a big raise of 6,500 into two players on a board of {9-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}. He was hoping that his opponents would fold so he could get away with his bluff. His first opponent showed resistance however and made the call.

Steinberg flipped his hand over like it was the winner but his opponent did not fall for the trick. His opponent had {j-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and his pair of jacks beat Steinberg. Steinberg fell down to 3,325.
