If Anyone Can, Tann Can
"Easy table?" observed Stuart Nash with a smirk. But despite being swamped by big names (Brunson, Bloch, Helppi, Greenstein), Willie Tann has just managed to double up his depleted stack and increased his tally 5,500 as a result.
With two or three limpers before him, Tann made it 1,000 from late position and received two callers, including Brunson and Bloch.
On the flop, the action folded around to Tann who pushed all in for a total of 1,150. Bloch was the sole caller.
"Just aces," declared Tann nervously as he revealed . But he had his nose in front, Bloch flipping onto the felt. A harmless and later, and the Brit scooped the pot.
Bloch, meanwhile, has taken a hit his stack can ill afford, and is consequently down to 2,100.
