Kidas Shows a Big Bluff
Level 3
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Athanasios Kidas opened to 1,000 from under the gun and called when Erguen Sertkan three-bet to 3,000. Kidas check-called for a small bet on the 10?K?3? flop, bringing in the 8? turn. Kidas led out for 5,100 and called when Sertkan raised to 17,500.
The Q? completed the board, and Kidas led out again for 30,000. Sertkan went into the tank but audibly gave his opponent credit for the flush and folded.
Kidas proudly turned over 7?5? for a complete airball which raised the eyebrows of David Miscikowski, who is at the table.
"Fool me one time," laughed Sertkan as he gave Kidas credit for his betting line.
