Chen Attempts a Bluff, Aksu Doubles Up

Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Osman Aksu opened the cutoff to 20,000 and Zhen Chen three-bet from the button to 55,000. When it got back to Aksu, he dropped in the call.
They saw a flop of J♦6♦10♠ where Aksu check-called a bet of 40,000 from Chen to the J♥ turn, which went check-check.
An 8♦ landed on the river and Aksu quickly led out with a bet of 75,000. Chen, composed as always, took his time before he shoved, which put Aksu to the test for his remaining 325,000. Aksu didn't need to think for too long before he shrugged his shoulders, grabbed his chips, and shoved them into the pot.
Chen then revealed he had a bluff with A♥Q♠. and Aksu's nut flush holding A♦Q♦ was good for the pot and a double-up.
