Harmetz Scoops Blom

Level 3

Badeucy

Viktor Blom raised the hijack to 600 and got a call from Daniel Harmetz in the cutoff before both blinds folded.

Both players drew two and Blom check-called a bet of 300 from Harmetz.

Both drew two again and Blom check-called a bet of 600.

On the last draw, each player drew one and the action went check-check.

Harmetz revealed J5543 for a jack-badugi and a pair of fives which, surprisingly, was good enough to scoop the pot as Blom flashed 7x7x.

Doug Polk's Team Purchases What Will Become the Largest Poker Room in Texas

Level 4
Doug Polk
Doug Polk

Earlier this month, thanks to an unfavorable city vote, Doug Polk was unsuccessful in his bid to open a massive poker room in a town near Dallas. But his team of investors, including poker vloggers Andrew Neeme and Brad Owen, are back and ready to take over what will soon become the largest card room in Texas.

Polk, who is playing in the Hustler Casino Live Million Dollar Game this week, announced during Wednesday's HCL stream that his team has purchased Rounders Card Club in San Antonio. The group already owns The Lodge Card Club in Round Rock, a suburb of Austin, and that room is currently the biggest in the Lone Star State with over 70 poker tables.
