Samual’s Triple-Barrel Bluff Gets Through
Darius Samuel looked down at Q♠7♥ and raised the action to 200,000, which Faraz Jaka called with K♠Q♦ as his hole cards.
The dealer placed 10♠6♠4♦ on the board, which both players completely missed. Jaka’s king kept him in the lead, but he checked his action and watched as Samuel bet 125,000. Jaka called.
The 10♥ appeared on the turn, and Jaka once again checked. Samual responded by sizing up to a 450,000 bet despite having nothing but queen-high. Jaka pondered the action, but then called to bloat the pot to 1,550,000.
Action heated up on the river when the dealer placed 5♦ on the board.
Jaka checked, an action that opened the door to Samual to make a move on the pot. Samaul used the opportunity to fire a third time, and this time it was an all-in bet.
Jaka promptly folded, and Samual added to his chip lead.
