Thorne Catches Briers Bluffing
Level 9
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Paul Briers bet 16,000 from the button on a board that read 5♣9♦5♦4♦. Adrian Thorne called out of the small blind, and Stewart Samuels called from under the gun.
The A♠ river got checked to Briers and he bet 22,500. Thorne called for his last 20,000 and Samuels folded.
Briers was forced to show 6♠2♠ for just six-high. Thorne had trips with 6♦5♥ and more than doubled up.
