Chiriac Bluffs Into a Monster
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
George Chiriac raised to 1,200 from the hijack before Lauri Saaskilahti three-bet to 3,000 on the button. Chiriac then put in a four-bet to 7,000 and Saaskilahti called.
The flop came 6?2?5? and Chiriac led out for 4,800. Saaskilahti called to the 2? turn, where Chiriac fired out another 12,500.
Saaskilahti spent some time counting out his remaining stack before he called. The river came the J? and Chiriac then moved all in.
Saaskilahti snap-called for his last 24,000 and turned over 6?6? for a full house. Chiriac could only show A?Q? for a failed bluff as Saaskilahti earned the massive double up.
