Viktor Blom's brother David has had quite an exciting start so far as he just managed to double up again. After a raise to 2,200 it was Olof Haglund who three-bet to 5,800. The action was then folded to Blom in the small blind who four-bet to 12,000.
The initial raiser folded and Haglund tanked for quite a while before making it 25,600. Blom quickly moved all in for 57,600 and Haglund reluctantly called.
