Sam Stein Extends Chip Lead over Cary Katz

Level 15 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

With the blinds still at 500/1,000 in this match, Katz raised to 2,200 on the button. Sam Stein called in the big blind.

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, and both players checked. On the {3-Hearts} turn, Stein bet 3,200, Katz made it 6,700, and Stein called. The river was the {Q-Clubs}, and Stein bet 16,500. Katz folded and said, "Good river."

Stein apparently showed Katz a bluff. "You showed me a bluff, I had to show you one," he said.

"A bluff?" Katz asked after seeing the flashed cards.

"I decided I was going to bluff a club river," he told Katz as he collected the pot.
