"One For the Champ"

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante

Three ways to the {j-Hearts}{9-Spades}{5-Spades} flop, Scott Blumstein checked in the big blind and Matthew Wantman bet 2,000 in the cutoff. Brandon Adams folded on the button and Blumstein called. The {a-Spades} fell on the turn and Blumstein bet 5,500.

Wantman folded rather quickly and said he had a decent hand including the jack of spades with the words "one for the champ". Blumstein revealed one of his cards, which happened to be the {10-Spades}, and was then jokingly labeled as PLO specialist.

"I might not even play the Main Event, this is by far more fun" Blumstein replied but that was probably just a joke.
