Block Climbing Back
Level 8
: 300/600, 75 ante
Rick Block, who was down as low as 10,000, is now trending upward and sits close to starting stack.
In the latest hand we saw him play, Block called a raise of 1,300 from the cutoff. The two blinds tagged along and all four players went to the flop. The flop came down 
and the two blinds checked to the original raiser who tapped the table as well. Block took this opportunity to fire forward 2,050. This bet prompted folds from all three of his opponents, allowing him to take down the pot.
Block, who won the $500 No-Limit Hold'em Re-Entry event just two nights ago, is now sitting on 28,000 in chips.
