sniffing out the bluff

Sometimes, you can just tell your opponent didn't get there. This hand was fun; comments in CAPS; track OUR HERO.
This was the second hand dealt in a $55 buy-in single table tournament, blinds 20/40.
OUR HERO went on to take 1st.

Seat 4 is the button
Total number of players : 10
