Nortje Gets Bloom to Fold Kings
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Marko Nortje raised to 125,000 with the 9♦8♥ on the button and Sean Bloom called out of the big blind with K♠K♦. The overpair was checked on the 9♥7♦3♥ flop and Nortje bet 150,000 for Bloom to call.
That led them to the 2♥ turn on which Bloom checked again and Nortje bet 350,000. Bloom folded and only then, Nortje exposed pocket queens with a big smirk on the face as the graphics had read the wrong cards.
