Zizka's Kings Cannot Hold Against Blom
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
The first casualty after the dinner break was Dutchman David Boyaciyan and moments later, another all-in showdown unfolded.
Zdenek Zizka raised to 40,000 in the hijack and Viktor Blom three-bet to 125,000 in the cutoff. The four-bet shove by Zizka followed and Blom inquired about the stack size, which he guessed at 395,000.
That was confirmed by the dealer and Blom then called for slightly more than half of his remaining stack.
Zdenek Zizka: K?K?
Viktor Blom: A?Q?
The A?5?4? flop instantly improved Blom and there was no escaping for Zizka on the 5? turn or 3? river.
