Vaysman Picks Off the Bluff to Double Up
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Sam Soverel opened the action with a raise to 2,000 from early position. He was called by Ernest Bush in middle position, Justin Vaysman in the small blind, and the big blind Valentyn Shabelnyk.
The flop came Q♠8♣J♠ and the four players checked to the 5♥ on the turn. Vaysman then bet out 3,500, which was called by Shabelnyk, Soverel folded, and Bush called as well.
After the 2♠ on the river, Vaysman bet out 11,000. Shabelnyk folded, but Bush raised to put Vaysman all in for his stack of 28,900. Vaysman gave it a quick thought before tossing in the chips to call. Bush turned over A♠K♣ for just ace high, and Vaysman tabled 10♥9♥ to secure the double up with his flopped straight.
