Jungleman's "Unreal" Bluff

Poker fans have already witnessed some insane bluffs as part of the Triton Poker series, including Christoph Vogelsang's seven-high stunner against none other than Phil Ivey.

But there was another big bluff in the tournament that would help Dan Cates to a top-10 chip count at the end of the day.

What did we just see? That was unreal!

On a board of 8?7?6?J? Karl Chappe-Gatien, who would end Day 2 third in chips, had checked with 2?2? and Cates bet 175,000 into a pot of 300,000. Chappe-Gatien then check min-raised to 350,000 and Cates called.

The river was the K? giving both players a flush. Chappe-Gatien opted to check and Cates then shoved for his remaining 895,000.

"This is gangster," said Ali Nejad on commentary.

"I can't believe he's actually thinking [about it] with the pocket deuces," said Randy "nanonoko" Lew before Chappe-Gatien folded.

"What did we just see? That was unreal!" said Nejad as Cates raked in the pot.

Tony G Survives

Thre was also another clash on the final hand of the night between Tony G and Leon Tsoukernik. Tony G was all in and at risk for 775,000 but was up against it holding A?10? against the A?K? of his opponent.

There was a king in the window, but the K?Q?9? flop saw Tony G flop a flush.

"Yes!" cried Tony G, getting to his feet. "I'm the best! Royal flush draw! Leon, you've got to love it. Champagne for the casino!"

The 6?2? completed the board and Tony G doubled up. This hand ensured he finished the day tenth in chips.
