Nine High Like a Boss
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Will Kassouf opened to 250,000 with 9♠7♠ from early position and Leon Sturm three-bet to 780,000 in the big blind with A♥6♦. Kassouf called and they went to a flop of Q♣10♦3♣.
Both players checked and the 10♠ paired the board on the turn. Sturm checked again and Kassouf splashed in a bet of 720,000. Sturm sent his cards to the muck and Kassouf showed his nine-high bluff.
"Nine-high like a boss! That's how you play the short stack," Kassouf stood up from his chair.
