Buhaiov Sniffs Out Darkin's Triple Barrel Bluff
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Sam Darkin made it 200,000 to go from middle position and only Nazar Buhaiov called out of the small blind.
Buhaiov check-called a bet of 200,000 from Darkin on the 3♦7♣A♣ flop.
The turn came the 9♦ and Buhaiov check-called another bet from Darkin, this time for 500,000.
After Buhaiov checked the K♣ river, Darkin fired out a third and final barrel of 1,200,000. Buhaiov paused briefly and then made the call for over half of his remaining stack.
Darkin had just a pair of fives with 5♠5♦, and lost the pot to Buhaiov's A♠10♣ for a pair of aces.
