Check-Call Bluff-Catching

A great strategy if you have a good board set up, but it’s still unrealistic to value-raise. Here’s a great example:

Seat 2: Teh Jinx (1530 in chips)

Teh Jinx: posts big blind 20
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to Teh Jinx
guillaume07: raises 40 to 60
Teh Jinx: calls 40
*** FLOP ***

guillaume07: checks
*** TURN ***
Teh Jinx: checks
guillaume07: bets 80
Teh Jinx: calls 80
*** RIVER ***
Teh Jinx: checks
guillaume07: bets 220
Teh Jinx: calls 220
*** SHOW DOWN ***
guillaume07: shows (a pair of Aces)
Teh Jinx: shows (two pair, Aces and Queens)
Teh Jinx collected 720 from pot
*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot 720 | Rake 0
Board
Seat 1: guillaume07 (button) (small blind) showed and lost with a pair of Aces

Daniel Negreanu, Poker Player Profile

daniel negreanuDaniel Negreanu is one of the most famous Canadian poker players. He has won four World Series of Poker bracelets and two World Poker Tour championships. Daniel began his poker playing career quite early, skipping school and eventually dropping out to play in poker clubs. Eventually, Daniel Negreanu got together his bankroll and tried to make it big in Las Vegas. However, he was not able to make it out in Las Vegas and went back to his native Toronto to get back to the top of his poker game.

Once Daniel was able to get some money back together, he started his climb to the top. He went to Foxwood Casino in New Jersey and won two events that put his earnings over $50,000. At age 24, Daniel became the youngest World Series of Poker bracelet in the history of the series. Full Poker Stars signed Daniel on in 2007. He joined the ranks of major players such as Chris Moneymaker and other great poker players.
