Ross Shows the Bluff
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Maxx Holland opened under-the-gun to 100,000 and was three-bet to 300,000 by David Valden, but then John Ross put in the four-bet to 675,000 from the cutoff. The action folded back to Valden who made the call and the two players went to a flop of 4♦2♣4♠.
Valden checked to Ross who fired out for 420,000 and produced a fold from Valden.
"Phewwww!" Ross let out a deep sigh of relief as he pulled in the pot and showed K♥Q♣, which got quite a few reactions from the table.
Holland admitted to folding pocket tens, Valden said he had ace-queen suited, and even Jake Daniels said he folded ace-king on the button after faced with the four-bet.
