Yu's Bluff Attempt Fails

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Ben Yu opened to 9,000 in middle position and was called by Rick van Bruggen in the big blind. The flop came {8-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} and both players checked to the {a-Diamonds} on the turn.

The action was checked to Yu again and he fired out a bet of 12,000. Van Bruggen called and the {q-Spades} completed the board. Once van Bruggen checked again, Yu tossed in another bet of 20,000 which van Bruggen eventually called. Yu tabled {k-Spades}{j-Hearts} but van Bruggen held {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs} to win the pot.
