Chivukula Catches Lau Bluffing
Level 17
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Venkat Chivukula limped from early position with A♣J♣6♥6♦ and was called by Dylan Smith in the small blind with 6♣4♠4♦3♣ and Ka Kwan Lau in the big blind with K♦J♥10♥2♦.
The dealer fanned a flop of Q♦9♣Q♥ and Chivukula bet 150,000. Smith check-folded but Lau check-called to find the 9♠ turn that both players checked.
Lau led out for 200,000 on the 6♠ river. Chivukula quickly called with a full house and scooped the pot.
