Blom Rivers a Straight to Crack Queens
Level 17
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Joshua Gebissa opened to 25,000 from under the gun before Viktor Blom made it 86,000 from the cutoff.
Cristian Visoiu put hin his stack of around 91,000 from the small blind. Gebissa got out of the way and Blom put in the extra few chips.
Cristian Visoiu: Q♥Q♦
Viktor Blom: 5♥5♣
Blom was crushed and remained behind following the A♦7♣4♣ flop and 8♦ turn. However, his gutshot came in on the 6♦ river to give him an eight-high straight for the pot and bust out.
