Motte's Bluff Gets Through

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Vincent Lam opened from early position for 6,500. Action folded all the way around to Fabien Motte who reraised to 31,000. Lam tanked for a minute or two before making the call.

The pair watched the {a-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop hit the felt, which Motte checked over to Lam, who tossed in 11,000. Motte made the call. On the {5-Spades} turn, Motte check-called a bet of 19,000 from Lam.

On the {9-Spades} river, Motte opted to lead out, firing for 40,000. Lam went into the tank for a minute or so before mucking his hand and giving the pot to Motte, who showed {7-Spades}{8-Clubs}, a stone-cold bluff.
