Blom Heating Up

We caught up with the action just as the dealer was dealing the flop. It appeared that Viktor Blom opened from the cutoff and was three-bet by his opponent on the button. Blom made the call for a heads-up pot.

The flop came {6-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and Blom check-called a 1,500 bet from his opponent.

The {10-Diamonds} fell on the turn and this time Blom led out for 3,250. His opponent tanked a bit, but eventually tossed a single 5,000-denomination chip into the middle for a call.

The {4-Spades} completed the board and Blom cut out a bet to 10,600 and tossed it into the middle. His opponent folded after some thought and Blom scooped the pot.

Blom is up to 39,000.
