Balfagon Sniffs Out Eldar's Bluff
Level 37
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Mariano Balfagon raised to 1,600,000 from under the gun, and action folded to Alon Eldar in the big blind who three-bet to 5,500,000. Balfagon made the call.
The flop came K♦J♠A♦, and Eldar continues for 1,500,000. Balfagon called, and the turn saw the 6♥ peel off. Eldar didn't slow down and bet out this time for 2,500,000. Again, Balfagon called.
Both players checked the 3♥ that came on the river, and Eldar announced "Queen high" as he tabled Q♥5♥ for total air, which was crushed by Balfagon's Q♦K♣ and he was pushed the pot.
