Dvoress' Huge Bluff Picked Off; Did Rcheulishvili Call in Time?
Daniel Dvoress opened to 1,200 from the button before Levan Rcheulishvili three-bet to 6,000 from the small blind. James Chen folded in the big blind, and Dvoress called.
Dvoress called a bet of 4,000 on the A?J?10? flop, which brought in the 7? turn. Rcheulishvili then checked, prompting Dvoress to fire for 16,000. Rcheulishvili thought it over and called to beef the pot to 52,800.
Rcheulishvili checked again on the 6? river and after some thinking of his own, Dvoress moved all in for 49,300. Rcheulishvili went deep into the tank, and after a few minutes, Dvoress called the clock.
The tournament director began the countdown. It appeared time had expired, but Rcheulishvili called just as the dealer had his hand on Rcheulishvili's cards.
Dvoress tabled Q?5? for queen-high while Rcheulishvili tabled A?K? for top pair, top kicker.
"Just in time," said a table mate. "Technically not, but close enough," Chen added.
You could see the adrenaline pumping through Rcheulishvili as he took in the pot. Dvoress still has one more life due to not firing a bullet in Day 1a.
There was no complaint from Dvoress and he headed out of the tournament room.
