Jewell Wisely Gives Up on the Bluff
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
On a board of A♥A♣8♣J♠ and with around 140,000 in the middle, Kurt Jewell fired out a bet of 108,000 out of the big blind with Eduardo Amaral calling from early position.
The 5♣ came on the river, and both players checked. Jewell showed a complete airball with Q♦3♦, while Amaral showed A♠2♣ for trips to win the pot.
