Blom Strikes Twice to Reduce Field to Last Dozen
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Maureen Bloechlinger got her last chips into the middle preflop with the K♥4♠ and was dominated by her previous nemesis Wesley Blom, who tabled the K♣Q♠.
The kicker played on the 10♣5♣3♠9♦2♥ board and Bloechlinger was ousted in 14th place, following Nellie Park to the payout desk to collect ZAR 25,000.
Blom then took on Didier Mery got 175,000 preflop in the very next hand from under the gun with Blom in the big blind.
Didier Mery: A♥A♠ 
Wesley Blom: 6♠6♣
The J♠7♣5♣ flop gave Blom some runner runner equity and that percentage grew on the 2♣ turn. Blom vividly demanded for a club and the celebrations could then be heard in the entire room when the 9♣ struck on the river.
