Bahls Pulls a Surprise
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Chip leader Antonio Vargas raised to 120,000 from middle position. Everybody scattered, except Michael Bahls, who three-bet the big stack to 790,000.
Vargas thought about it for a minute.
"You always have it," Vargas said, pointing to the nit reputation Bahls has built, which included folding pocket queens preflop earlier in the evening.
Vargas, threw his cards away.
"Like I said, you always have it," Vargas repeated.
"Do I?" Bahls asked, as he flipped open his hand and laughed, showing 5♣4♣.
