Montoya Calls Bluff to Bust Nguyen

Ivan Tevar Montoya raised to 500 from under the gun and picked up two callers before Viet Anh Nguyen three-bet to 2,000. Montoya called and so did one other player.

The flop came 2♣6♥7♥. Action checked to Nguyen, who made it 4,000 to go. Only Montoya made the call. The turn was the 8♠. Montoya checked and Nguyen pushed all in for 8,300, less than a pot sized bet.

Montoya went into the tank before making the call. Nguyen had J♣10♥ for a bluff with a backdoor straight draw. Montoya turned over 6♣4♣ for a pair of sixes and also had backdoor outs.

The river came the 5♦, which completed Montoya's straight. He won the pot and Nguyen was eliminated.
