"I Can Be Your Hero, Baby"
Level 39
: Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante
Steven Stolzenfeld opened to 2,400,000 on the button and only David Guay came along from the big blind.
The flop fanned out 6♣6♠3♣ and Guay checked to Stolzenfeld who continued for 1,800,000. Guay put in a check-raise to 4,800,000 and Stolzenfeld made the call.
On the J♦ turn both players checked their options to the 6♥ river. Guay pondered for a moment before tossing out a bet of 5,400,000 and Stolzenfeld went in the tank.
After close to a minute, Stolzenfeld tossed in a chip for the call and the hands were shown. Guay tabled 10♠8♠ for the ten-high bluff and Stolzenfeld confidently revealed K♠5♠ for the king-high hero call.
"I can be your hero, baby," sang Stolzenfeld's rail as he collected the pot.
