"Good Call": Zack Picks Off a Bluff
Level 3
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
In a three-way pot on a board of 10♦6♦4♠3♠, Jean-Noel Thorel, who, despite being seated next to 2022 WSOP Player of the Year Daniel Zack, is the brightest player at the table today, bet before a raise from Zack. Shawn Stroke then called from the next seat and Thorel folded.
Zack checked on the 5♣ river and Stroke bet 127,000. Zack went deep in the tank before calling.
"Good call," Stroke said as he showed A♠9♠ for just ace-high, leading Zack to show K♥10♠ to win the pot with top pair.
