Hand #172 - Andy Bloch Doubles Through Nenad Medic

Nenad Medic has the button. He raises to 300,000, Bloch reraises all in, and Medic calls.

Bloch: {Q-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

Medic: {K-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

The flop is {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{8-Spades} and Bloch takes the lead with a pair of queens. The turn is the {9-Diamonds}, the river is the {7-Diamonds}, and Bloch gets a much-needed double-up to 1,240,000.

The crowd immediately begins serenading him again with "Happy Birthday" as he rakes in the pot.
