High Rollers Hate to be Bluffed

Philipp Gruissem and Gianluca Benvenuto were tangling in a pot where they had reached the river of a {j-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{3-Spades}{8-Hearts} board.

Benvenuto was fist to act from the cut-off and he bet all in for 32,000. This bet was significant as the pot had only swelled to 10,550.

Gruissem seemed pained and angry, and looked like he wanted to call. He turned to look at his Italian opponent who was doing a very good job at looking relaxed. Gruissem had 26,700 remaining and went from looking like he was going to call, to folding.

"You want to choose one?" asked Benvenuto.

"F##k, now I know you were bluffing," said the German. "I think you have ace-nine with the ace of spades."

He was wrong though as he chose the {2-Clubs}.

"F##K," he bellowed one more time.
