Andy Bloch got things started preflop by raising to 425. He was called by two players in late position to a flop of {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{10-Hearts}

{5-Clubs}

. Bloch followed through on his preflop raise with a flop bet of 700. Only one of his opponents called.

Both players checked the {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

turn. When the river fell {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

, Bloch made what he must have thought was a value bet of 1,200. We can only imagine his surprise when his opponent called and turned over a very soft-played {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{A-Clubs}

, which bested Bloch's {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{9-Spades}

, queens and tens.

Bloch is struggling with 9,000 chips.
