Fulton Caught Bluffing
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Donald Fulton opened to 12,000 in early position, and only Michel Abecassis called in the big blind.
The action checked all the way to a Q♥8♠8♦K♦10♣ river, and when Abecassis checked for a third time, Fulton decided to fire a small bet of 8,000. Abecassis called and heard a "You got it" from Fulton.
Abecassis still wanted to see his opponent's cards, though.
Fulton tabled A♥7♦5♥2♦, which indeed could not beat the J♠J♥10♠5♠ of Abecassis.
