Blom’s Stack Soars After Double KO
Level 10
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Martin Kabrhel, Viktor Blom, and one other player were all in preflop with Blom covering both players.
Martin Kabrhel: A♦A♠
Opponent: K♥Q♣
Viktor Blom: A♣K♣
Kabrhel looked in good shape to triple up, but the K♦6♣K♠ flop vaulted Blom into the lead with trip kings with an ace kicker.
The 9♠ turn and 4♣ river changed nothing and Blom scooped the large pot while eliminating two players.
“That was sick,” Eric Wasserson added as Blom collected the pot.
Kabrhel was seen re-entering shortly after being eliminated.
