Lakerveld’s Bluff Falls Flat as Süss Strikes with a Straight
Level 12
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
The board was showing K♠Q♠Q♥10♦, and the pot had already built up to around 24,000 chips. Daniel Lakerveld, from the big blind, kicked things off with a bold bet of 18,000. Marco Süss, sitting in the hijack, took a moment to think it over but ultimately decided to call.
When the J♦ hit the river, Lakerveld checked, sending the action back to Süss. He mulled it over for a bit but opted to check as well. Then, Lakerveld flipped over 8♠6♠ for a daring bluff. But Süss wasn’t fazed—he showed A♥Q♣ for a rivered straight, leaving Lakerveld's bluff looking pretty weak.
