Hunichen Applies Pressure And Shows Bluff

Milko van Winden

Level 22 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Jeremy Ausmus raised from the cutoff with Q?J? to 750,000 and Chris Hunichen found 8?7? in the big blind. Hunichen asked how much Ausmus had to start the hand with and called after he got the answer.

The flop was dealt J?9?6? to give both players a piece. Hunichen checked to Ausmus who continued with a bet constructed of a single 1,000,000 chip. Hunichen raised with three of chips of the orange variety to bump it up to 3,000,000. Ausmus called.

With almost 8,000,000 in the middle, the 3? turn didn't change the board structure too much. Hunichen announced "all in" for effectively 8,750,000 as he covered Ausmus by 4,400,000.

Ausmus took his time but opted to fold and Hunichen slammed his cards on the table, showing the bluff to his opponent.
