Pardo Picks Off a Bluff to Take Chip Lead
Level 18
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of 10?9?4? and roughly 300,000 in the middle, Juan Pardo checked from out of position and called a 300,000 bet from Vicente Delgado.
On the 10? turn Pardo lead out with a bet of 170,000. Delgado made the call.
Pardo bet again on the 4? river, this time sizing down to 125,000. Delgado used one time extension before raising to 1,000,000. This time Pardo needed to use a time extension, but shortly afterwards he flicked in the call.
Delgado could only show 8?7? for a missed straight draw turned into a bluff. Pardo tabled A?9? for two pair, tens and nines to take down a colossal pot and the chip lead.
