Zhao Bluffs Chan

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante
Zhao Yanchao
Zhao Yanchao

A good bluff is not just about throwing chips at a hand, it��s all about telling a believable story and it looks like one man who can spin a good yarn is Zhao Yanchao.

We caught the Chinese player in action in a pot against Justin Chan, who was kind enough to get us up to speed with the action. The community cards were spread {q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{a-Spades}{6-Clubs} and there was close to 5,000 in the pot already and Chan (middle position) was facing a close to pot-sized Zhao bet of 4,500.

But how did we get here? Well according to Chan he opened the action pre-flop and Zhao had re-raised from the cutoff with Chan the only caller and then Zhao had barreled every street, with Chan calling him down.

It looks like Chan��s resolve waivered at the last though and he eventually found the fold a few seconds after we arrived. Zhao obligingly rolled over {7-Clubs}{3-Spades} for a ballsy stone cold triple barrel bluff. Great stuff.
