Blom Sent to the Reentry Desk while Bedell Takes his Seat
Level 6
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Viktor Blom opened to 8,000 from the cutoff and Orpen Kisacikoglu three-bet to 40,000 from the small blind. Blom put in a four-bet to 128,000 and Kisacikoglu five-bet shoved, covering Blom who had started the hand with around 600,000. Blom weighed his options for just under 30 seconds before making the call, putting himself at risk.
Viktor Blom: Q?Q? 
Orpen Kisacikoglu: K?K?
Blom was on the wrong side of a brutal preflop cooler and couldn't catch up on the 5?2?2?4?4? runout. Kisacikoglu dragged in the largest pot of the tournament so far while Blom quickly exercised his option to reenter.
Meanwhile at the other table, Tom-Aksel Bedell just sat down with a starting stack of 500,000.
