Level 5
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Tadgh Meegan raised to 800 from early position and Kestutis Baranauskas three-bet to 2,000 from the big blind, Megan called.
Baranauskas bet 2,000 on the A♠10♠Q♥ flop which Meegan called.
Baranauskas produced the same bet of 2,000 when the K♦ fell on the turn. Meegan raised to 6,700 and Baranauskas called.
Baranauskas checked the 9♦ river and Meegan shoved for 19,300. Baranauskas leaned back in his chair and deliberated over the decision for a while before throwing in the call.
Meegan turned over a total bluff with 5x4x and was playing the board. Baranauskas had A♦K♣ for top two pair which won him the pot and sent Meegan to the rail.
