Plausinaitis Picks Off a Bluff to Eliminate Mokri
Level 6
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Kayhan Mokri opened to 6,500 from the hijack and Paulius Plausinaitis three-bet to 35,000 from the small blind. Mokri four-bet to 82,000 and Plausinaitis made the call.
The flop came 10?8?7? and Mokri bet 42,000. Plausinaitis called.
On the Q? turn Mokri moved all in and Plausinaitis snap-called with a covering stack.
Kayhan Mokri: A?J?
Paulius Plausinaitis: 10?10?
Mokri had been caught bluffing but still had outs in the form of a double-gutshot straight draw to crack Plausinaitis' set of tens. The 2? river was a brick and Mokri was eliminated just before break while Plausinaitis passed one million chips.
