Boutin Boots Bloch

Andy Bloch, from Day 1
Andy Bloch, from Day 1

Shaun Deeb raised to 2,800 from under the gun, and all folded to Andy Bloch in small blind. Bloch called the raise, as did Burt Boutin from the big blind.

The flop came (easy as) {A-Spades}{2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}. The blinds checked to Deeb who continued for 3,600. Bloch called Deeb's bet, then Boutin check-raised to 15,000. Deeb got out, but Bloch reraised all in for about 40,000 total. Boutin called.

Bloch {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}
Boutin {5-Spades}{4-Clubs}

Top pair for Bloch, but he was in tough shape versus Boutin's flopped straight. The {Q-Diamonds} on the turn meant no card could save Bloch, and he gathered up his iPad and left the scene.

Meanwhile, Boutin moves way up to 190,000.
