Huang Picks Off Grieco's Bluff

Level 28
: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Wei Huang raised on the button to 180,000 and Nicola Grieco called
from the small blind. The
flop went check-check. Grieco picked up some equity with the
on the turn and both players checked again.
The on the river prompted a 500,000 bet from Grieco and Huang considered it with the best hand.
Grieco let out a sigh and said: "For me, it's good you fold." That certainly triggered Huang, who literally snap-called after the Italian had spoken up.
"Flush," the Italian lied.
"Really?" Huang interrogated.
Grieco then made a hand motion indicating Huang should fold, but Huang obviously wanted Grieco to show his hand first. The Italian then showed his busted king-high and Huang took it down.
