Murphy's Bluff Backfires

The player in the UTG +1 position raised to 850 and the cutoff called before Braden Murphy also called from the big blind, making it three-handed to the flop of {10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{K-Hearts}. Murphy checked to the raiser who bet 1,350; the cutoff folded, but Murphy called before he led out for 1,900 on the turn of the {9-Hearts}.

Murphy then bet out 3,700 on the river {2-Hearts} with about 20,500 behind. The UTG +1 player called, to which Murphy remarked, "Good call," before the player showed down {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} to scoop the pot.
