Sella Catches Maltez Bluff to Win Huge Pot
Level 3
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Fabrice Maltez raised to 600 from late position and Anthony Sella reraised to 1,800 from the button. Shawn Morales called in the big blind before Maltez came in with a four-bet to 8,000. Both Sella and Morales made the call.
The flop came 9?K?9?. Morales checked, Maltez bet 11,500 and Sella called. Morales folded and two players went to the turn.
The turn came the 8? and Maltez shoved all in for 11,500. Sella quickly made the call and players flipped their cards.
Maltez showed 10?6? for a bluff with backdoor outs. Sella showed A?K? for two pair with his kings and the nines on board.
The river was a blank, the 3?, and so Sella held to win a huge pot. Maltez was eliminated from the tournament.
