Simmons Bluffs Gavatin

Can't catch Simmons' bluff
Can't catch Simmons' bluff
Joe Simmons opened the pot to 14,000 before being three-bet to 42,000 by Mats Gavatin out of the small blind.

Simmons made the call and then proceeded to call 55,000 on the flop of {K-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades}.

The turn of the {3-Spades} went check, check, but when the river of the {2-Hearts} landed Gavatin checked to Simmons who fired 100,000 into the pot.

Gavatin eventually mucked his hand, but wished he didn't went Simmons tabled his {8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for just eight-high; but the pot, as he climbs to 605,000 while Gavatin slips to 165,000.
