Ghassan Goes for the Hero Call
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
The river had already arrived when the action was caught. There were 16,000 chips in the middle and the board read 6?7?3?10?J?. Ibrahim Ghassan sat in the under-the-gun position and checked to David Sitbon in the next seat over. Sitbon fired out a big bet of 12,000 and Ghassan went into the tank.
Eventually, he came up with a call, leading Sitbon to shake his head and reluctantly show the table the failed bluff with A?9?. Ghassan showed his K?10? for nothing but a middle pair on this straighty, flushy board. A formidable call to rake in this big pot in the early levels of the tournament.
