Valverde Bluffs into Top Boat
Level 4
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
With two players seeing a board of 8♣10♣2♣8♦ and 22,000 in the middle, Fernando Valverde checked from the small blind and Jose Rodriguez Zurita bet 6,500 from the cutoff. Valverde made the call.
On the 8♠ river Valverde shoved and Zurita, who had 22,200 behind, nearly beat him into the pot.
Valverde could only show a bluff with A♥K♦ while Zurita turned over tens full of eights with 10♠10♥ to score the double up.
"Bad timing" tablemate Nacho Barbero commented as Zurita scooped the pot.
