tony bloom playing poker in austrailia again

[saafend_seagull]

Bust $100k buy in in Austrailia torno couple days ago, set to play $250K this week.

We caught the action with around 30,000 in the pot and a board reading . Philipp Gruissem had bet 12,000 from the small blind, Masa Kagawa raised to 46,000 from the big, and Tony Bloom three-bet all in for roughly 152,000 from middle position. Gruissem got out of the way and Masa quickly called with , which was out in front of Bloom's .
Even though Kagawa held two pair, Bloom had counterfeit outs. The turn added to those outs, but the river missed him. With that, the two-time $100,000 Challenge runner-up was eliminated from the tournament.

On the next hand Bloom raised from the button to 5,300 and Trickett called from the small blind. The flop came down

The turn brought out the

Checking two - pair on the hope Trickett was going to bet into the pot. Nice.

As I mentioned he has already LOST these earlier in the week:

$100,000
$10,000 (bubbled)

These are CHIP counts, not cash chips.

These are CHIP counts, not cash chips.

But it's called the $250,000 Challenge, which would suggest the buy in is $250,000??

 

[Titanic]

Just WOW.

OOOPS!

"Igor Kurganov raised preflop and both Tobias Reinkemeier and Tony Bloom called. The flop came down

and Bloom checked to Kurganov who bet 18,000. Reinkemeier acted rather quickly and raised it up to 47,000 and the action was on Bloom.

"I'm all in," Bloom said after about a minute of pondering.
"This might take a minute," Kurganov responded after 20 seconds after the dealer had counted out Bloom's stack.
The 2004 Aussie Millions Main Event winner was all in for 241,300 and Kurganov had him covered.
"Call," Kurganov announced then and Reinkemeier snap-folded.

Tony Bloom:

Igor Kurganov:

The board ran out

,

and Kurganov took all Bloom's chips.

"I thought you maybe had jack-ten," Bloom said. "I'll rebuy," he added as he kept enjoying his massage like nothing happened.
