High Stakes Poker Bluff
The minimum buy-in had been raised from $100,000 up to $500,000 and in one of the first hands Laliberte flopped a pair of aces and was holding an Ac-Jh his bet $12,000 this is when Jamie Gold re-raised with $32,000.
Laliberte raised again to $82,000 and Jamie Gold folded showing his hand to the table, he had been holding 8s-4s.
According to Gabe Kaplan the host of High Stakes Poker choosing billionaires to bluff is not wise.
Gold would see his retribution a short time later with a hand against Doyle Brunson where he was holding 9s-7s against Brunson's Ts-8s, Brunson bet $25,000 and Gold came in with a raise of $125,000.
The next to try a bluff was David Benyamine with a seven-duce, however for much of the game Laliberte dominated the cards.
This High Stakes Poker game was held at the South Point Hotel and Casino.
