Boika Put in Blender by Saft but Finds Hero Call

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Aliaksei Boika opened to 3,000 and was called by Stephane Tayar. Action folded to Jimmy Saft, who reached for chips and produced a three-bet of 11,000. Both his opponents called.

On the 453 flop Boika led out for 7,500. Tayar folded, but Saft three-bet to 20,000. Boika called.

The 2 turn was checked through by both players.

On the 9 river Boika took his time before acting, finally checking. Saft quickly produced a bet of 33,000.

Boika went deep into the tank, studying his opponent. After four minutes or so, a tablemate called the clock. Not long after the countdown started Boika made the call.

Saft turned over J10 for the jack-high bluff, having missed his turned flush draw while Boika had 77 for a pair of sevens.

As he raked in the pot, Saft complimented Boika on his play, tapping the table and stating that was "some call."
