Seward Bluffs It Off
Level 37
: 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
In a blind vs. blind confrontation, Nicholas Seward raised to 2,000,000 from the small blind with 6?3?, and Konstantyn Holskyi called from the big blind with 9?7?.
The flop came A?9?8?, giving Holskyi a pair of nines. Seward continued with a bet of 1,000,000, which Holskyi called.
Both players checked the A? turn.
On the 7? river, Seward opted to bluff with a hefty bet of 7,200,000 after some deliberation. Holskyi quickly called, risking his tournament life, but his call was correct as he doubled up.
