Salem Pulls Off Sick Bluff to Fold Out Weissman's Boat
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Joey Weissman and Naseem Salem found themselves in a blind-on-blind situation, as action folded around to the former. He limped in, but Salem punished, with a sizeable raise to 395,000.
Weissman's K♦4♦ checked a pair on the 4♥5♦Q♥ flop, and Salem fired out 300,000 holding A♣2♠ for a gutshot. The Q♣ turn brought a check from both players, with Weissman boating up on the Q♠ river. He went for value, opting for 300,000, only to see a raise to 1,405,000 from Salem.
After about two minutes of his head in his hands, Weissman reluctantly folded the winning hand.
