Ciccarelli Calls Vasylchenko's Bluff to Double Up
Level 19
: 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
The board read K♠7♦10♠K♦ when John Ciccarelli checked from the big blind to Oleg Vasylchenko on the button who sent 100,000 in the middle. After some thinking, Ciccarelli called.
The Q♦ landed on the river and Ciccarelli checked again. Vasylchenko decided to bet 400,000, putting Ciccarelli at risk for his remaining stack of 240,000 .
Ciccarelli tanked for some time and eventually called. Vasylchenko revealed J♠4♥ for a bluff, and Ciccarelli turned over the winning hand with 6♥7♠ for two pair with the sevens.
