Mohsin Charania Tries Out the "Cary Dime" Against Cary Katz

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Cary Katz
Cary Katz

On a {j-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{q-Diamonds} flop between Mohsin Charania and Cary Katz, both players checked. and the {k-Hearts} was dealt on the turn. Charania bet 5,000, mimicking a tactic famously used by Katz in this summer's Super High Roller Bowl, where Katz would min-bet turns. It was a tactic he used to great effect, especially on Day 1 of the tournament.

"You want to see a free card with jack-ten?" asked Katz before electing to call.

Charania checked the {4-Clubs} river, and Katz checked behind, saying, "Jack's good."

Charania shook his head and went to muck, but not before Katz turned over {a-Spades}{5-Spades} for ace-high. Then Charania mucked.

"You need to bet bigger!" said Katz as he raked in the small but meaningful pot.
