Koenen's Failed Bluff

Level 8 : 300/600, 50 ante

Chris Koenen tossed out a bet of 12,000 on a completed board of {3-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Spades}, and Shabtai Moria made the call.

Koenen announced he had "jack-high," showing {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, and Moria peered forward, confused.

"What does he have?" he asked.

The dealer confirmed that Koenen showed jack-high, and Moria tabled {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for a winning pair of nines.
