Lopes Calls the River with Four-High
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Julien Sitbon raised from the button, receiving calls from Mantas Petrauskas and Bruno Lopes, in the respective blinds.
The Q♥10♥8♦ flop checked through to the 7♠ turn and the 6♦ river. Petrauskas elected to take the lead for 3,000, Lopes called and Sitbon made a quick fold.
Petrauskas showed A♠5♠ for ace-high, while Lopes slammed down 4♣3♠ onto the felt. While Petrauskas' ace-high may have been the best hand, Lopes was quick to inform the table that he thought he was holding five-four, which would have been a straight.
Sitbon told Petrauskas that he was bluffing with the best hand.
"Value bet," Petrauskas jokingly corrected Sitbon.
