Raimondi Busts; Block Builds A Lead

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Just before the break, Larry Carney opened under the gun for 37,000. Rick Block made the call and Peter Raimondi defended his big blind.

The flop came {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{8-Hearts} and after checks from Raimondi and Carney, Block bet 41,000. Both players called. The turn brought the {5-Hearts} and it checked around.

Raimondi led the {4-Clubs} river for 70,000 with heaps in the middle already.

Carney folded, but Block pushed in, having Raimondi covered. Tortured by the decision, Raimondi stood from his chair and mulled it over for several minutes, eventually making the call for his tournament life with {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts} for the flush.

This time Block wasn't bluffing as he rolled over {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for the boat, busting Raimondi and leaping into the chip lead.
