Coombs Gets Tangled Up

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 13 : Limits 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

This hand was relayed to the PokerNews team by a player on break:

Early position started with a raise before it folded to Michael Coombs in the big blind, who defended.

The dealer fanned out a board of A♥5♠3♦. Coombs checked and the early position player bet and was met by a reraise from Coombs. The preflop raiser three bet and Coombs just called.

Heads up they saw the the 4♣ peel off. Coombs led the turn into his opponent and was befuddled by a raise from his opponent but made the call.

Coombs checked on the river 4♦ saying, "This hand makes no sense". The early position player responded by saying he didn't think that Coombs had anything and had been trying to bluff him, while at the same time placing a bet.

Coombs made the call and was shown quads when his opponent tabled 4♠4♥ and he flashed A♦K♠ before tossing his hand in the muck.
