Funkhouser Gets Some Value; Shows a Bluff
Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 60,000 ante
David Funkhouser raised to 80,000 on the button and Ali Eslami defended the big blind. Each player drew one card and Eslami checked to Funkhouser.
Funkhouser put in 90,000 additional chips and Eslami called after some thinking time. Funkhouser tabled 10x8x7x6x5x for a ten-eight, taking down the pot as Eslami's cards hit the muck.
The following hand, Charles Tucker opened to 85,000 from under the gun. In the cutoff, Funkhouser three-bet to 305,000, leaving himself under 700,000 behind, and Tucker reluctantly folded. Funkhouser showed 7x7x for the bluff.
