Shushan PIcks Off a Bluff
Level 5
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
With three players seeing a board of 7♣J♠Q♣ and around 8,000 in the middle, Gihad Ismail checked from the big blind and Yaniv Shushan bet 2,500 from under the gun. Sandra Cotescu called from the hijack while Ismail got out of the way.
Cotescu called a 5,500 bet from Shushan on the 3♠ turn leading to the 6♦ river. Shushan checked and Cotescsu bet 25,000. Shushan made the call.
Cotescu had A♣10♣ for ace-high and a missed combo draw while Shushan had top pair with Q♥10♥ to take the pot.
