Blom Arrives and Boosts Stack
Level 4
: 7,000/14,000, 14,000 ante
Viktor Blom was eliminated in the €2,700 Warm Up and immediately after registered for Day 1a of the €5,300 Main Event to double up shortly after sitting down with a flopped straight. The table also features partypoker sponsored pro Dzmitry Urbanovich and Dermot Blain, and the latter got into a pot with Blom just now.
On the 
turn, Blain checked and Blom bet 150,000, Blain called. The 
fell on the river and Blain checked once more before calling a bet of 325,000 by Blom. The Swede rolled over 
and Blain mucked 
for top two pair.
"Why did you have to put out the straight card out there? He could have lost much more," Blom joked to the dealer with a smile on the face.
