Bluff Gets Through for Eldridge
Level 33
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
David Eldridge limped on the button holding J?4?3?2? and Brian Rast checked his option in the big blind with K?Q?8?6?.
Action checked through the 3?Q?8? flop to the A? turn at which point Rast checked again. Eldridge bet 1,500,000 and Rast made the call.
Rast checked once more following the A? river. Eldridge decided to try and steal the pot with a bluff, sizing to 5,500,000. That sent Rast into the tank but he emerged having decided on a fold to reward Eldridge's bluff.
