Double Knockout for Bloom Reduces Field to Three Tables
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
It was a setup hand that unfolded over on table eight with El-Juan Du Plessis from under the gun and Eben Mare in the big blind ending up all-in and at risk. Mare was the second-shortest stack and at risk for 111,000 while Sean Bloom had both covered in an early position.
El-Juan Du Plessis: K♦K♣ 
Eben Mare: A♣J♣
Sean Bloom: A♥A♦
There was no escape for either short stack on the 7♠7♥5♠5♣4♥ runout and that brought the field down to the last 27 players.
"I folded pocket jacks," Yadav Mazor said, after he had apparently tanked for a long time in the small blind.
