Value Bluff by Staats

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

From middle position, Chris Staats bet 5,000 on a completed board of {3-}{7-}{6-}{j-}{k-}. His opponent on the left asked if Staats had anything, and Staats double-checked his holding as if to see. The player on his left splashed in a call, and Staats tabled {a-Spades}{9-Diamonds} for an ace-high bluff. However, his kicker played against {a-}{8-}.

"That was not a value-bet," he said with a laugh.
