On a river reading 2♦2♠3♣4♦6♦, Faawan Bansay placed a bet of 2,700. Joseph Jozwiak spent some time surveying his opponent before pushing in a raise to 8,200.
Bansay quickly made the call and Jozwiak let out a sigh of disappointment as he tabled the Q♠10♥, showing he'd been caught bluffing.
Bansay showed the 9♦8♦ for a flush and claimed the pot.
