Chilaud Picks Off Smolka's Bluff
Niveau 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Dawid Smolka opened from the hijack to 80,000 and Maxime Chilaud defended his big blind.
Chilaud check-called a bet of 75,000 from Smolka on the Q♣9♦8♥ flop.
The turn came the 7♦ and Chilaud check-called another bet from Smolka, this time for 225,000.
Chilaud checked for the last time when the 7♣ landed on the river, and Smolka put him to the test for his last 375,000. Chilaud burned through one of his time extensions before making the call.
Smolka showed a bluff with A♠3♦, and Chilaud turned over top pair with Q♦10♥. The pot was pushed to Chilaud as Smolka dropped to below two million chips.
