First Bluff of the Day?
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Action was joined with a flop already showing 7♣J♦3♦, and 13,300 in the middle.
Button player Philip Saracino was engaged in an early battle against Troy Quenneville in the big blind.
Quenneville check-called a bet of 4,000 on the flop, before taking over the betting lead to the tune of 6,500 on the 9♥ turn. Saracino called, and the players moved on to the river.
Quenneville chose to check when the 5♠ was revealed, which prompted Saracino to put out a bet of 16,000. After some consideration, Quenneville elected to fold and was promptly shown the A♣ by his opponent.
