Jones Shows a Bluff
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
The 2023 WSOP Main Event runner-up Steven Jones opened from under the gun and was called by Jeremy Sfalli in the big blind.
Sfalli check-called a 2,100 bet on the 10♣7♠3♥ flop.
Sfalli then check-called another bet on the 2♠ turn, this time for 7,500.
The 3♦ peeled off on the river. Sfalli checked for a third time and Jones decided to empty the clip as he jammed for 31,000 effective as the slightly covering stack. Sfalli was pained by the decision for his tournament life but he opted to let it go.
Jones cracked a smile as he looked up at the Pokernews team and flashed K♣Q♥ for a bluff.
He then hugged his opponent in consolation as he explained, "I wouldn't have shown except that he [media] was here."
