Tran Calls Saab's Bluff
Saab asked Tran if it was a camera raise. "Something like that," responded Tran. Saab decided to make the call and then he checked dark. Before the dealer could put a flop down, Tran announced that if Saab was going to check dark, Tran would bet dark and he bet 300. This confused the dealer slightly, but with prompting from Saab, she put down a flop. Saab check-raised to 1,100 but Tran was undeterred and called.
Both players checked the turn. The river came , bringing a bet of 1,600 from Saab. When Tran made the call, Saab quietly pushed both of his cards face-down into the muck. Tran showed for the winner.
"You own me here," said Saab. "I have to bet blind to win."
