Bloom Secures Huge Double Through Nortje
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Marko Nortje made it 125,000 to go withj the A♠3♣ and Sean Bloom called with the A♣10♦ to see both players flop an ace on A♦10♣2♦. Bloom led for 95,000 and Nortje raised to 305,000 to get a call by Bloom with the top two pair. On the K♠ turn, Bloom bet 350,000 only for Nortje to push all-in.
Bloom reluctantly called and was way out in front with his aces and tens. Nortje needed a king to chop but the 8♠ river secured a massive double for Bloom worth 2,660,000.
