Cleghorn Teaches "the Master" a Lesson
Level 21
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Omaha Hi-Lo
Stephen Cleghorn raised from early position as action folded to Men Nguyen in the small blind, who didn't know how much the bet was for.
"Should we tell PokerNews how bad you're playing? Old man doesn't know the bet," tablemate Dustin Dirksen joked as Nguyen called, as did big blind Richard Davis.
All three players checked the 9♠3♠Q♣ flop before Nguyen led out on the 10♣ turn. Davis folded, but Cleghorn stuck around with a call.
The river came the 5♣ and Nguyen checked this time. Cleghorn fired out a bet and Nguyen threw his hands in the air in frustration before mucking.
Cleghorn began celebrating and turned over K♥Q♦J♥8♦ for a bluff as he took the pot. "Got to bet that," a tablemate told him. Nguyen admitted he folded two pair.
