Barkusky Catches Sol's Bluff
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Ramon Sol raised to 100,000 from the small blind and Nicolas Barkusky called in the big blind.
On the 10?8?6? flop, Sol continued for 65,000, Barkusky raised to 150,000, and Sol called.
The 8? turn checked through to the K? river which saw Sol lead for 275,000. Barkusky went into the tank for around two minutes as he contemplated his decision but he eventually found the call.
Ramon Sol: 7?5?
Nicolas Barkusky: 10?9?
Sol was bluffing with a missed straight draw while Barkusky flopped top pair and made the right call on a dangerous board.
