Classen Picks Off Buchalter's Bluff
Level 2
: Limits 600/1,200, 0 ante
Heads-up to a flop of 9♠10♥9♥ where Christopher Claassen checked out of the big blind and Yehuda Buchalter checked behind from the hijack.
Classen checked again on the 10♣ turn and Buchalter bet. Classen thought for quite some time before making the call.
The river was the 8♦ and Classen checked for the last time. Buchalter bet, which caused Classen to go into the tank. Eventually, Classen called and was shown A♥7♠5♥3♠ by Buchalter for a bluff. Classen turned over A♦Q♥2♣2♠ for just a pair of deuces to take down the pot.
