Bloom Fades and Doubles

Level 6 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

Tony Bloom raised to 14,000 from the hijack seat. Alexander Kostritsyn called from the big blind and the flop came down {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{2-Diamonds}. Kostritsyn check-called a bet of 16,000 from Bloom and the two went to fourth street.

The turn brought the {J-Diamonds} and Kostritsyn fired 30,000. Bloom moved all in for 97,500 and Kostritsyn made the call holding the {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}. His open-ended straight draw and flush draw combo was up against the {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} for Bloom. Kostritsyn also held a king that would give him a better pair.

The river completed the board with the {4-Hearts} and completely whiffed for Kostritsyn. He sent the chips over to Bloom and dropped to 167,500.
