Coulier Gets a Count Down

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

The player in the under-the-gun position raised to 2,200. Arne Coulier in mid-position called and so did the players in the hijack and big blind.

The flop came {J-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{9-Clubs} and the big blind check-folded to the 5,500 bet of the player in the under-the-gun position. Coulier and the hijack called.

The turn was the {7-Diamonds}. The first player to act led out for 13,900, and Coulier and the hijack both called.

The {J-Clubs} completed the board on the river, the first player to act checked, and so did Coulier. The hijack, however, bet 25,000. The other player folded, so then Coulier was up.

"You bet so fast. You have got it, right? You seem very enthusiastic about your hand." Coulier said trying to get a reaction. "I have a super-amazing hand, but you'd never bluff here. You must have ace-ten of clubs here or something." Still no visible or audible response from his opponent. "I am not sure I want to fold here." "Does it feel comforting that I am not going to raise?" His opponent shrugged. "Imagine I have a flush, and I go all in, would that suck? Ace-ten would make so much sense here."

One of the other players called the clock and the dealer shouted out, "Floor! Clock on Table 10!"

The floor came over and gave Coulier 20 seconds and a 10-second countdown. On the count of one, Coulier folded, showing the {J-Spades}. His opponent showed the {A-Clubs}.
