Bral Shows the Bluff
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Kevin Hyde limped in from under the gun and received calls from Jose Ferreira in middle position, Bohdan Demianenko in the cutoff and Yale Hamrick in the small blind before Jason Bral checked in the big blind.
The flop came Q♣10♠7♠ and action checked around to Demianenko who bet 50,000. Hamrick and Bral made the call while Hyde and Ferreira got out of the way.
On the 4♣ turn Hamrick checked and Bral bet 270,000. Demianenko got out of the way and after briefly considering his options Hamrick folded as well.
Bral asked Hamrick if he wanted to see his cards before tabling K♦J♦5♦3♣ for just a straight draw and taking the pot.
