Pais Catches Hsu's Bluff

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

PokerNews was told that the hand was a series of check-bet-call action between Kai Cheng Hsu and Mauricio Ferreira Pais that resulted in a pot worth 200,000 on a board of 8♦9♣4♦5♣J♥.

Hsu under the gun was taking his time thinking about his action when he decided to pass it on to Pais once again. Pais fired 110,000. With 192,000 behind, Hsu went into the tank once again unmoving. In the end, he decided to shove all-in making Pais go into deep thought.

After a few seconds he decided to call. Hsu showed A♦10♦ for a busted flush draw and a bluff. Pais tabled Q♦Q♥. Hsu left the table as he scooped the pot telling the table that he wasn't sure if Hsu had a straight.
