Big Pots, Big Decisions

Gustavo Morales raised to 80,000 in middle position and Nazar Buhaiov called in the cutoff. The flop fell 5♣4♥3♠ and Morales continued with a bet of 105,000 which Buhaiov called.

The 5♦ paired the board on the turn and Morales dropped in another bet of 290,000. Buhaiov still called and the 8♠ landed on the river. Morales counted out a bet of 600,000 which sent Buhaiov into the tank.

Around three minutes had passed before Buhaiov cut out a raise to 1,400,000. Morales took a minute and then shoved all in for 2,385,000. Buhaiov leaned back in his chair in disbelief as he asked for a count. Buhaiov went back into the tank for another three minutes but finally decided to lay his hand down.

"Show a bluff," he and many others at the table pleaded with Morales but all of the cards went face down into the muck.
