Hackney Shows the Bluff
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Robert-Alexandru Patrascu limped in from the cutoff, Elliot Hackney raised to 8,000, from the button, and Patrascu called.
The 4♥10♦J♠ flop saw Patrascu checked and then call a bet of 7,000 from Hackney.
The 7♣ turn checked through to the 9♠ river. Patrascu took the lead for 8,000 and Hackney responded with a raise to 38,000. Patrascu spent several minutes in the tank before making the fold.
As Hackney raked in the pot he flashed A♦Q♦ to the table, for just ace-high.
