Linaras Shows the Bluff
Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Luigi D'Alterio raised to 120,000 from the cutoff, Sokratis Linaras three-bet to 315,000 on the button and D'Alterio called.
D'Alterio check-called a bet of 210,000 from Linaras on the 10♠2♣4♠ flop.
The J♥ turn saw a repeat of the action, this time Linaras sized up to 410,000.
The river landed the K♠ and D'Alterio checked again. Linaras bet enough to put D'Alterio all in for his effective stack of approximately 1,000,000. D'Alterio spent several minutes in the tank before finally folding.
As Linaras raked in the pot he tabled A♣9♥ for just ace high.
