Blom Bombs Out
We picked up the action on the turn as the board showed . Vivek Rajkumar checked, and his neighbor Viktor Blom put out a bet of 32,000. Rajkumar eventually check-raised to 65,000, and Blom tanked and called.
That led them to the river, and Rajkumar announced a covering all in. He flung out a stack of green chips to make it visible, then sat patiently still while Blom considered the decision for the rest of his chips. He had about 150,000 or so left, and he eventually plunked them across the betting line to put himself at risk.
We'd never see his cards; Rajkumar tabled , and Blom tapped the felt and stood from his chair. Blom's day is done.
Vivek, on the other hand, is once again climbing toward the top of the board; he's got about 550,000 now.
