Khachaturyan Pulls Off The Value Bluff
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of A♦5♥K♣9♦4♣ and around 85,000 in the middle, De Han Kim checked from the small blind and Stepan Khachaturyan bet 40,000 from the big blind. Kim made the call.
Khachaturyan shook his head before showing Q♠7♠ for just queen-high. Much to the table's surprise Kim showed that he had hero-called with Q♥6♣ for an inferior queen-high. Khachaturyan's kicker played and he took the pot.
