Niveau 29
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Karim Kaladjou opened to 225,000 on the button and with J♦6♠ and Tung Nguyen defended his big blind with A♦6♥.
The A♥Q♠A♠ flop upgraded Nguyen to trip aces and he checked to Kaladjou, who continued for 150,000. Nguyen check-raised to 450,000 and Kaladjou called.
Nguyen checked after the 3♠ came on the turn and Kaladjou bluffed 300,000 into the middle. Nguyen called.
The 2♣ completed the board and Nguyen put a paltry bet of 200,000 into the middle. Kaladjou decided his ruse was over he flicked his hand into the muck.
