Bloch and Madsen Scooped

Andy Bloch and Jeff Madsen have just been scooped leaving them with 8,300 and 425 respectively.

After three limpers, including Bloch, Madsen raised from the bottom with {A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and was called by all three players. When the flop came {3-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{9-Clubs} Madsen raised a bet from the middle-position player and was called by all three players.

When the turned peeled the {A-Spades} he again lead for 400 and was called round. However with the {4-Clubs} dropping on the river the flop aggressor from middle position lead this time for 400 and was met with a call from Bloch and Madsen.

Bloch tabled {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{7-Spades} for twp pair and a seven low, while Madsen had a better two pair, a six low and a missed straight flush draw. However their opponents hand was too good for both the Full Tilt pros as he scooped the pot with {2-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for the nut low and second-nut high.
