Mitich Shows a Bluff?
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
A player limped from early position before Jacob Mitich, beneficiary of the infamous heads-up resignation by William Pinkerton in a $400 tournament at the 2023 Potomac Winter Poker Open, raised to 5,000 from middle position. He received calls from the big blind as well as the original limper.
Action checked to Mitich on the Q♠9♠5♦ flop and he continued for 10,000. The big blind called while the early position player folded to send the two remaining players heads-up to the turn.
The big blind checked for a second time following the 10♦ turn and then folded after Mitich sized up to 17,000. Mitich flashed the 4♦ as he raked in the pot to add more to his big stack.
