Belluscio Loves His Hand
Level 29
Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Small blind Benny Glaser and big blind Julio Belluscio had checked through a J♦K♦5♦ flop. When Glaser checked the 7♦ turn, Belluscio called pot, and put 240,000 in the middle and Glaser called.
Glaser again checked on a K♥ river, and Belluscio continued for 500,000. Glaser sat quietly for a moment, and then decided to utilize his speech play on his garrulous opponent. "How about this time?" asked Glaser.
"I love my hand!" said Belluscio. "I am very happy."
"I like my hand too," replied Glaser. But he chose to believe Belluscio and folded. Belluscio showed his belief was warranted, showing AxKx7x5x for kings full.
