Wriggle Off the Hook

After an early-position player limped Konstantin Bucherl raised to 775 and Leo Boxell called on the button. The original limper called as well and they saw a {Q-Spades} {J-Hearts} {4-Spades} flop. The early-position player checked. Bucherl bet 1,200 and Boxell raised to 3,200. The first player got out of the way and Bucherl went into the tank for about two minutes. He finally relented and folded {K-?} {Q-?} face up, and Boxell said, "Nice laydown," as he tabled {J-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}.
