Alleg Bluff Catches
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Karim Alleg opened to 6,000 and received calls from Erich Tedeschi on the button and Frederic Dorazio in the big blind.
On the K♥J♥2♠ flop, Dorazio checked to Alleg, who slid out a bet of 6,000. Both of his opponents called.
The turn brought the 5♠ and Dorazio checked once more. Alleg put out a bet of 12,000 and only Tedeschi called.
The 5♣ river completed the board and Alleg slowed down, checking to his opponent. Tedeschi put out a bet of 23,000 and after some thought, Alleg made the call.
Tedeschi showed A♥9♥ for the busted flush draw, while Alleg had A♦J♠ for a pair of jacks, sending him the pot.
