Nice Bluff By Volkov
Level 36
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Shortly after the break, Dominik Panka raised from the button to 1,000,000 and was called by Ruslan Volkov. In the big blind, David Hu called as well, and a K?A?7? flop appeared on the felt.
The blinds checked and let Panka bet 1,150,000. However, Volkov and Hu kept calling.
The K? came on the turn, and Volkov took the lead, betting 3,500,000 chips. With A?5?, Hu eventually folded. Panka couldn’t do something different because he only had 7?5?. What they didn't know is that Volkov, with Q?10?, only had a straight draw.
