Tasyurek Picks Off a Bluff
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Halil Tasyurek opened to 30,000 from under the gun and Milos Skrbic called in the cutoff as Marian Virlanuta called in the big blind.
Virlanuta checked on the flop of 5♥10♦2♣ and Tasyurek continued for 45,000. Skrbic folded and Virlanuta called. Virlanuta checked again on the 7♥ turn and Tasyurek checked back.
Virlanuta led out for 80,000 on the 6♣ river and Tasyurek quickly called. Virlanuta showed K♥Q♥ for just king-high and Tasyurek showed A♣10♠ to win the pot with a pair of tens.
