Stolzenfeld Picks Off River Bluff From Lee
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Steven Stolzenfeld opened to 200,000 from middle position and it folded around to Nicholas Lee who made the call in the big blind.
The flop fanned out 10♠8♠6♦ and both players checked to the 6♥ turn. Lee took the lead with a bet of 375,000 and Stolzenfeld came along to the Q♥ river.
Lee took a few seconds before cutting out a bet of 875,000, and without much thought, Stolzenfeld made the call. Lee turned over 7♦5♥ for a missed straight draw and seven-high, while Stolzenfeld scored the pot with K♠Q♠ for top pair.
"You're the only person who bluffs rivers in this whole tournament, I respect it," said Stolzenfeld to Lee while he collected the pot.
