Hagen Doubles Through Bloch

"I'm so excited... and I just can't hide it.... (No, no, no, no...)"
"I'm so excited... and I just can't hide it.... (No, no, no, no...)"
A short-stacked Andreas Hagen moved all in for his last 19,300 from late position and action folded around the table to Andy Bloch in the big blind. After a minute or so in the tank, Bloch tossed in the required chips to make the call and found himself racing -- his {Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} against Hagen's {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}.

The {K-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} flop was huge for Bloch, giving him both straight and flush draws, but Hagen managed to dodge all of Bloch's 20 outs twice as the board bricked out{5-Hearts}, {7-Hearts}.

Hagen improved to just over 40,000 in chips after the hand.
