"I Bluffed 'em!"

[user75032]

With play tightening up, seeing a draw has become rare. Multi-way draws are practically extinct. Yet that's what happened after Barry Greenstein raised to 60,000 from the button and was called by Jeff Lisandro in the small blind and Mike Matusow in the big blind. Five cards went out on the draw: one to Lisandro, two to Matusow and two to Greenstein.

After the draw, Lisandro, as first to act, made an aggressive bet of 200,000. Both other players immediately folded.

"I bluffed 'em!" said Lisandro with a grin. He flashed 3-4-5-6-7 for a seven-high straight.

Barry Greenstein Gradually Climbing

Winning the last three hands in a row, two of which saw his post-draw bets uncalled, Barry Greenstein is quietly building a monster chip stack. He hasn't had a big double-up or won a giant pot, but his aggressive short-handed play has brought his chip count over the 1.1 million mark.

Mike Matusow, perhaps feeling a bit brash after his big call against Jeff Lisandro, raised from the button to 60,000. He was called by both blinds, Erick Lindgren and Barry Greenstein. Lindgren and Greenstein each drew one card; Matusow stood pat. Greenstein won the pot with a bet of 130,000 after the draw.

Erick Lindgren opened again, this time from the button for 60,000. Jeff Lisandro moved all in for a total of 175,000 in the big blind and Lindgren quickly called.

Lisandro stood pat with 10-8-7-6-3. Lindgren drew one, looked at Lisandro's hand, then mucked.

"I thought you might have a flush," said Lindgren, with a meaningful glance in Mike Matusow's direction.

After the hand, Lisandro was up to about 360,000.

Mike Matusow Makes a Big Call

Jeffrey Lisandro raised to 60,000 from the cutoff and Mike Matusow called from the button. The blinds passed and both players drew one card. Lisandro was first to act and he bet 100,000. Matusow grabbed a leg of chips but stopped short of making the call. He looked Lisandro up and down before confidently putting the across the stack across the imaginary line.

Lisandro remained expressionless and said, "Pair."

Matusow, clearly having heard him said, "What...a pair?" Lisandro nodded and Matusow said, "I knew it...that's right, king-high's good boys!" as he turned over {K-?}

.

Matusow continued his celebration prompting Erick Lindgren to rhetorically ask the others, "I thought we lost Tony G?"

Erick Lindgren raised yet again, this time to 60,000. Mike Matusow made the call from the small blind. He drew two cards, while Lindgren stood pat. Matusow checked to Lindgren, who made a teaser bet of 50,000. Matusow called to see Lindgren table 8-7.

"Eight seven?" Matusow asked with a chuckle. "I made just enough to call you." He flashed 9-6 and then mucked his hand.

Now that play is four-handed, the players are much more willing to engage. With 50,000 in the pot before the cards are dealt, many more pots are being won with a raise or reraise before the draw.

Erick Lindgren Takes a Big One

Erick Lindgren raised to 60,000 from the cutoff seat. Jeffrey Lisandro called him from the small blind and they went to the draw heads up. Both players took one card.

Lisandro was first to act and he checked. Lindgren bet 115,000 and Lisandro insta-called. Lindgren said "nine-seven" to which Lisandro immeidately replied "it's good." Sure enough, Erick flipped up {9-?}
