Polk Gets Caught Bluffing Into Trips

Level 19 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

Thomas Eychenne raised from the button to 6,500. Doug Polk three-bet to 22,000 and Eychenne called.

The first four cards came 10Q4Q with Polk betting both the flop and the turn for 14,000 and 29,000 respectively. Each bet was called by Eychenne.

The river landed the 6 and Polk emptied the clip shoving all in and putting his opponent to the test for his remaining 75,500 chips. Eychenne called and Polk instantly mucked. Eychenne tabled his hand to reveal QJ for trips.

"Damn, I need to stop bluffing," Polk recited aloud as he paid off the bet.
