WSOP ME Final Table + Some Bluffs

Saw yesterday the televised version of the Main event Final table. Of course they edited a lot of hands to put it all in 2 hours, specially when they played over 100 hands in HU and only showed like 2. Anyway it was interesting to see all the monkeyshoving they did hehehe. At the end, they had to give a big chunk of the prize money to pay the Taxes (Who's the real winner then??)FWIW there are rumors that Eastgate, moved to England before the Final Table, so he may got away, but probably not.

One of the most interesting hands where at the beginning with the two biggest stacks on the table, where Phillips limp/reraise w AK from UTG and got 4bet by Demidov. Sick read by Demidov putting him exactly on AK, risky move when he was already committed to that huge pot. Here is the hand in the first 3min of the video.

This also brought me some memories of other big bluffs in big tournaments.
Lets see a couple(River/Turn/Flop Bluffaments):




Ahhh... thats my favorite..
the beauty of the minraise/minraise/minraise fold move.
It looks like no one ever belief when the board is paired.
