Bloom Gets There

[user67765]

JC Tran raised to 42,000 from the button and Tony Bloom made the call in the big blind.

They took a {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{4-Spades}

{5-Spades}

flop and Bloom led out for 45,000. Tran made the call. The turn was the {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

and Bloom released a second bullet worth 90,000. Again Tran made the call as a big pot was brewing.

The river brought the {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

putting three spades on board. It was enough to slow the action as both checked it down. Bloom tabled {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{3-Clubs}

for the rivered gutshot straight as Tran raised his eyebrows and mucked.

Bloom is back up to nearly 800,000 chips as this contest is now very evenly matched.
