Bloom Suffers Gutshot

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

After faced with a raise, Myron Bloom got it all in pre-flop against Yaser Al-Keliddar, a 2018 WSOP bracelet winner.

The cards were tabled and it was a classic flip with Myron at risk.

Myron Bloom: {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}
Yaser Al-Keliddar: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

The flop of {7-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{j-Clubs} also gave Bloom a gutshot straight draw which had him sitting pretty since neither player had a club.

And the turn {9-Diamonds} was a dream as it gave Bloom a straight.

"He did it!" the table cheered

"Not yet he didn't, I can still hit a queen", Al-Keliddar replied smugly, referring to his gutshot straight draw.

And just as he uttered those words Bloom's dream turned into a nightmare as the {q-Spades} came down on the river, giving Al-Keliddar a bigger straight.

Bloom sat there in disbelief for a second but stood up cheerfully and headed to the payout desk.
