We join the action on the turn with a board of [Ac] [Ah] [Jd] [7c] and Russell Carson has checked to Adria Balaguer. The Spaniard bets 112,000, Carson makes the call and the final card is the [9d]. Carson checks once more and Balaguer bets 257,000.

"All I have is a bluff catcher," says Carson  while folding.
