Salomon Picks Off a Bluff
Level 6
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 0 ante
Kevin Rabichow and Rick Salomon are battling on table 78. Rabichow raised to 3,500 on the button and Salomon called.
The flop came 6♥6♦5♥. Salomon checked, and Rabichow bet 2,000. Salomon decided to call and see a turn.
That turn card was the 8♥, and Rabichow kept betting when Salomon checked to him, this time for 4500. Salomon again called.
The river was the 9♣ and Rabichow didn't stop betting. He now announced a bet of 12,000, and Salomon pretty quickly called. Rabichow rolled over the J♠4♥ for a bluff, and Salomon showed 9♦5♦ for the winner.
Salomon still has some work to do to catch up to his opponent.
