Balleur Catches Zamani in Triple Barrel Bluff
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Gaetan Balleur opened 9,000 in early position and Martin Zamani three-bet 27,000 from a couple of spots to his left. The action quickly folded back to Balleur and he made the call.
The dealer spread a flop of J♦6♦2♦, and Balleur check-called a bet of 18,000.
When the 8♠ hit the turn, Balleur checked and Zamani fired another shell of 27,000. Balleur made the call.
When the K♥ completed the board on the river, Balleur checked for a final time. Zamani didn't slow down, pushing a bet of 66,000 across the line. Balleur didn't take long before announcing a call.
Zamani rolled over his Q♥9♥ and Balleur dragged the pot with A♦K♠, missing the flush draw but making a pair of kings.
