Launais Calls Hruby's Bluff

[user46298]

Martin Hruby raised to 82k preflop, and big blind Bruno Launais made the call. He check-called a second time (65k) on the {K-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {J-Clubs} flop before both players checked the {9-Spades} turn and saw a free {4-Spades} river. At this point Launais checked once again, and Hruby bet 116k. Launais was already stacking the call by the time Hruby's hand left his stack, and realising what was up, Hruby threw his cards facedown into the muck, conceding a pure bluff with no hope of a win at showdown. Annoyingly, Launais then accepted the pot without having to show down his own hand, so the mystery is doubled.
