Hall Shows the Bluff

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 4,000 ante
"Look how intimidating my blues are"
"Look how intimidating my blues are"

Philippe Plouffe opened to 85,000 in the hijack seat, Galen Hall three-bet to 210,000 on the button and Plouffe called.

Both players checked the {6-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{a-Spades} flop and the {2-Hearts} on the turn, but only Plouffe checked after the {k-Diamonds} fell on the river. Hall slid out a towering stack of blue T5,000 chips with two green T25,000 chips on top totaling 200,000.

"It's more intimidating if I use blues," Hall needled. "It's better than betting whites (T100,000)."

Plouffe said nothing rather he continued to study Hall.

"You know, you can ask me questions or something," Hall told him.

Plouffe finally muttered, "fold" then turned over {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}. Hall grinned and opened up {5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} for air and raked in the pot to push his stack to 2 million chips.
