Blom Gets Away From Top Pair
Nivel 18
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Alex Foxen K♣Q♦ opened to 100,000 from under the gun and was called by Viktor Blom K♦10♦ and Alessandro Pichierri 4♠4♣ from the hijack and big blind.
The K♥Q♠6♣ flop gave Foxen top two pair, while Blom had a pair of kings. Foxen continued for 150,000, and Blom called before Pichierri released his hand.
The 3♣ turn left Blom drawing dead. Foxen bet 540,000 and was called.
With 1,800,000 in the pot, the board completed with the 5♠ river. Foxen sized up to 1,285,000. Blom had 1,700,000 behind, and he correctly folded his top pair as Foxen continued to extend his lead.
