Blom Puts Di Ceglie in a Difficult Spot
Level 1
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Pasquale Di Ceglie raised from the cutoff to 700 and Viktor Blom made it 2,800 on the button. Once the blinds folded, Di Ceglie made the call.
They went to a flop of 5♦K♥K♠ where Di Ceglie checked dark, and Blom fired 1,600. Di Ceglie quickly made it 4,000, and Blom called.
An A♦ landed on the turn and Di Ceglie continued to tell a story that he was strong by firing 5,500, which Blom called.
When the 8♦ landed on the river, Di Ceglie slowed down with a check, then Blom gathered chips and dropped 28,600 into the pot. Di Ceglie thought for quite some time in what seemed to be an agonizing decision for the Croatian player, but eventually he slid his cards into the muck.
