Exclusive! Matt Dale doesn't bluff first hand!!

Matt Dale, Bristol local and poker’s most eligible bachelor (according to the Catman) sees K6-off in the BB on the first hand with 3 limpers. Amazingly he doesn’t raise all in, and checks to see a two-suited flop of KK6.

In true trapping style he checks to a MP bet of 100 (blinds at 25/50 with no ante) and after some folds, makes a call smoother than a cat’s cashmere codpiece.

A fairly harmless turn card elicits a check from both players, and a possible flush on the river has Matt betting 1500 with fingers crossed that his opponent has hit.

His opponent, seizing his chance, pops to 3000, and with much deep and careful trapping thought which lasts for 2, maybe even 3 seconds, Matt re-raises all in.

It should have been perfect, but his opponent smelled the proverbial rat and folded.

As of the time of this post, with the blinds about to go up to 50/100 in the second level, Matt is up from his 10k starting stack to 17k
