Nicolas Alvariza opened to 800 UTG. Jari Mähönen made the call from the Lo-jack, and Martins Sulte joined in on the fun from the Button.
All three players checked the 5♥6♠J♠ flop. Action was checked to Sulte on the 10♣ turn, who dipped his toes in the waters with a 1,600 bet. Then, faster than the speed of lightning, Alvariza put in a raise to 3,500. Mähönen swiftly folded before Sulte made the call.
The dealer revealed the K♠ river, and Alvariza put out an intimidating 16,000. “What do you think I have?” Sulte tried to engage his opponent in some table talk. After spending perhaps two minutes in the tank, Sulte mucked his hand. A revealed Alvariza revealed his 9♥7♣ holdings for a creative bluff.
Nicolas Alvariza: 50,000
Martins Sulte: 30,000
