Rice Hits the Turn to Double Off Blom
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
In a limped pot, Shawn Rice bet 300,000 from the cutoff on a flop of K♠J♥5♣ and Viktor Blom raised to 1,000,000 in the small blind. Rice then moved all in for 1,860,000 total and Blom called.
Shawn Rice: A♥A♦Q♦10♥9♥
Viktor Blom: J♠J♣7♠6♠3♠
Blom had flopped a set against Rice's litany of straight draws, and Rice hit one of them on the 9♦ turn to take the lead. The river was the 7♦ and Rice doubled up.
The next hand, Blom raised to 160,000 on the button and Veerachai Vongxaiburana called in the big blind.
Blom then bet another 160,000 on the 9♣7♦A♥ flop and Vongxaiburana announced pot. Blom snap-folded as he gave up another pot.
