Nguyen Taking it to the Streets
Level 18
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Christopher Nguyen opened to 120,000 from early position before Martin Zamani three-bet to, you guessed it, 420,000 from the button, and Nguyen called.
The J♣7♦3♥ flop checked through to the A♠ turn which saw Nguyen check for a second time before Zamani announced a bet of 275,000. Nguyen took some time before he started to cut out a check-raise to what appeared to be 900,000, and Zamani tossed his cards into the middle before the raise was made official.
"C'mon show, I've shown you every time," Zamani pleaded, "I'll never show again if you don't show."
Nguyen obliged, tabling 5♥4♥ which prompted a round of laughter around the table as his bluff got through.
