Zamani’s Bluff Pays Off with Two Pair
Niveau 6
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
With about 20,000 already in the pot and the board showing 6♦3♣4♥5♥, Martin Zamani led with a bet of 15,000, which Lorenzo Arduini called.
When the 2♥ hit the river, Zamani pushed the action with a hefty bet of 100,000, essentially putting Arduini all in since he had only around 40,000 left. Faced with a straight on the board and a flush draw, Arduini found himself in a tough spot. After some deliberation, he opted to fold his hand.
Zamani, in a good mood, smiled and revealed 5♣2♣ for two pair, knowing that if Arduini had called, it could have at least been a split pot.
