Bloom: {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

Hansen:

{A-Spades}

{K-Spades}

"I don't ask for much in life, but I would like one spade on the flop," said Hansen.

The flop came down {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{J-Spades}

{6-Hearts}

and Hansen got his wish for one spade. There was also a heart on board.

The turn card added the {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

to the board and put a big smile from ear to ear on Hansen's face.

The river card was a black one, but it was also a king, meaning it could only be the {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

. The two players chopped up the pot.
