Keating Bluffs It Off
Level 22
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Action folded to Ruslan Volkov in the small blind who raised to 65,000. Alex Keating called in the big blind and they went heads-up to the 6♠7♣7♦ flop.
Volkov checked to Keating who bet 100,000. Volkov called and the 7♠ fell on the turn.
Keating bet another 275,000 and Volkov again called. The river was the 6♥ and Volkov checked for a third time.
Keating then moved all in for 1,200,000 and Volkov took about 30 seconds before calling with 9♥9♣ for a full house. "Oh, wow," Keating said as he revealed 8♦4♠ and was playing the board. He gave Volkov a fist bump before making a quick walk to the exit.
