Hand Analysis
Mokri makes a normal raise-call preflop, though he could consider a four-bet bluff as well. Many suited combos mix four-bets at this depth.
On the flop, cardsforfun bets and faces a raise. Mokri is supposed to be oriented mainly around hands that have better turn and river playability with his raises, essentially two pair or better for value, and hands that block straights for bluffs. However, he could have been adjusting for cardsforfun’s wider ranges, expecting to get paid off by worse hands.
Facing the raise, cardsforfun has a hand that plays well as a call, since it beats bluffs but won’t improve to beat value very often. Weaker overpairs should consider three-betting the flop.
Mokri finds one of his best turn cards. He bets to set up shoving for stacks on the river. Instead, cardsforfun does the shoving for him.
This shove is too wide. Paired hands aren’t really supposed to jam unless they have a draw for backup, stuff like 5♦4♦ or 5♣3♣. Draws that are unlikely to have showdown value, such as J♦5♦, also make good bluffs.
Mokri has an easy call with trips and wins a seven-figure pot.
Mokri Induces All-In Bluff from ‘cardsforfun’
Playing 70 blinds deep at $1,000-$2,000 with a $400 ante, cardsforfun opened to $4,500. Mokri made it $19,000, and cardsforfun called.
On the 8♥4♦2♦ flop, Mokri bet small, $8,000. Cardsforfun called. The 4♣ turn paired the board, and Mokri checked. Cardsforfun bet $26,900, and Mokri called. The river was the K♦, and cardsforfun shoved the last $87,823 after Mokri checked.
Mokri quickly called with 8♦8♠ for the flopped nuts, and cardsforfun could only muster Q♠10♦. Mokri collected a $284,247 pot.

Hand Analysis
Shallower stacks feature more linear three-betting ranges focused on high cards and pairs, and eights are going to fit in there.
After flopping top set on a board that isn’t likely to help his opponent, Mokri starts with a small bet.
Cardsforfun has a hand that needs to continue in some fashion. Overcards with a diamond are a bit too strong to fold against that size, and these hands mix some bluff raises. Hands that are closer to the 8 and can turn more equity, like 10-9, are better candidates to raise, and cardsforfun does opt to see the turn cheaply.
Mokri should usually bet the turn, since he has a big range advantage due to having far more overpairs. However, he decides to check and see if cardsforfun will put money in the pot for him.
That’s exactly what happens, and for good reason. Cardsforfun has a hand without any showdown value, so betting to try to get king-high and ace-high hands to fold is a good idea. Having the 10♦ will enable them to bluff some rivers, and one such river is definitely the K♦.
Cardsforfun pulls the trigger on the solver-approved bluff, but unfortunately for them, Mokri is waiting to pick them off with a monster hand.
