Popping Up the Counts
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Thre-way action was on the flop of 2?8?3?. Preston McEwen bet 2,800 from middle position. Catalin Pop raised to 7,800 from the small blind and the big blind got out of the way.
The turn was the 3?. Pop led out for 6,800. McEwen contemplated it for some time before he released his cards.
"Want to see the red one or the bluff" said Pop, which McEwen responded the bluff. Pop then showed the 7? and claimed the other one had been the 8?.
