Busquet Shows the Bluff
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Fady Khabbaz raised from early position to 50,000 and found calls from Ehsan Amiri in late position and Olivier Busquet in the cutoff.
The flop came K♦2♦9♣ and Khabbaz continued for 30,000. Amiri folded, and Busquet pumped it up to 105,000, Khabbaz called, and the players saw the K♥ drop on the turn.
Khabbaz checked and Busquet tossed out a bet of 135,000, which sent Khabbaz into the tank for a good 2-3 minutes. He decided to fold and showed Busquet Q♦Q♥, which made Busquet smile.
"You don't have the king, do you?" stated Khabbaz.
"Do you want to see?" asked Busquet.
"Sure," came the reply, as Busquet tabled 7♣6♣ for a bluff.
