De Jong's Bluff Doesn't Work

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Gabriele Rossi raised to 225,000 first to act with the {j-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} and Cornelis de Jong called with {a-Clubs}{5-Hearts} in the big blind. De Jong checked the {q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop and Rossi checked behind.

The {6-Spades} appeared on the turn and both players checked before de Jong then bet the {8-Diamonds} river for 400,000. Rossi was seemingly confused and used a time bank extension before making the call with his pair of eights.
