Bloch Has A Bajillion-million Chips

Andy Bloch raised under the gun to 60,000. Mike Sowers flat-called from late position, as did Patrik Antonius from the big blind. The three players saw the flop of {K-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{4-Spades}.

Antonius checked, Bloch checked, and Sowers bet 115,000. Antonius folded, Bloch called.

The turn was the {6-Spades} and both players checked. The same for when the {K-Diamonds} hit the river, both checked.

Bloch turned over {9-Spades}{9-Clubs} and Sowers mucked.

According to Phil Laak, who always seem to have something to say, "That's why he's got a bajillion-million chips. He's got telepathic, x-ray vision."

Bloch is now up to 1,800,000 in chips.
