Alontsau Calls Rudolph’s Bluff
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Christian Rudolph opened the action to 50,000 from early position and was called by Siarhei Alontsau in the big blind.
Both players checked the 6♣10♠9♦ flop, and the dealer revealed the 7♦ on the turn. Alontsau tossed in a green chip for a bet of 25,000, which Rudolph raised to 100,000. Alontsau called.
The river brought the 9♠, and Alontsau checked. Rudolph took some time before putting out a bet of 150,000, which Alontsau quickly called.
Rudolph revealed K♥J♠ for a missed double gutter, while Alontsau claimed the pot with his A♦8♦ for a straight.
