Wantman Gets a Rare Bluff Through
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Matthew Wantman bet 11,000 from middle position on a board of K♠6♥7♣J♣ and Alejandro Lococo called under the gun.
The river was the 10♥ and Wantman moved all in for around 30,000. Lococo quickly turned over ace-king and tossed his cards into the muck.
Wantman flashed the 10♣ as he went to take the pot. "Show the other one," Lococo pleaded, and Wantman obliged by showing the A♣.
"I thought he called when he turned his hand over. I was like, f**k," Wantman said.
"He usually has it. That's like one in a 100 times he bluffed," a tablemate added.
