Shaw Gets a Bluff Through Kudrynskyy
Level 39
: Blinds 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante
William Shaw limped in the small blind with 6♦4♦ and Yuriy Kudrynskyy checked his option in the big blind with K♣8♣.
On the A♠7♥7♣ flop, Shaw led for 4,000,000 and Kudrynskyy called.
Shaw led again on the 4♣ turn for 10,000,000, and Kudrynskyy called again.
The river was the A♦, counterfeiting Shaw's pair of fours. He needed to bluff to win the pot as he fired a final barrel of 20,000,000, half of his remaining stack. Nearly three minutes would roll off the clock before he opted to let his hand go, and Shaw was able to get the bluff through.
