Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
The action was picked up on a 7♠J♦2♣ flop, with 3,000 in the pot.
Jeremy Dan had checked in the big blind, as had the under-the-gun player, and Niklas Deitmar bet 1,200 in the cutoff. Dan check-raised to 3,600, which only Deitmar called.
Dan continued for 4,000 on the 10♣ turn, and Deitmar called again.
"Ocho, which means eight in Spanish," Dan said on the 5♦ river as he bet 8,000.
Deitmar went deep into the tank, while Dan continued to talk to him.
"If you fold, I will show; either way you get to see it." He continued, "What if I just actually have the best hand? Lay down your arms, and you will smile when you do."
Ultimately, Deitmar did fold, and it proved to be the right decision, as Dan tabled his 7♥7♣ for a flopped set.
