Suominen Takes Some Off Bjorkheim
Level 24
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
A limped pot in a battle of the blinds saw Anders Bjorkheim lead the Q♥8♠6♣5♥ turn for 175,000 with the 9♣2♠. Keimo Suominen called with the K♣7♦ and the 6♠ fell on the river.
Bjorkheim now checked and Suominen bet 275,000 to earn a reluctant call from the Norwegian, who was wrong with a bluff catcher holding his nine-high.
