Blackburn Back in Action
Level 11
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Hung Nguyen limped in under the gun to put action onto Nick Blackburn, who was on Nguyen's direct left. Blackburn went all in for 12,700 and action made its way around to the small blind, who called. Nguyen also called, meaning any further action would go into a side pot. However, action checked through the runout as it came 
and all three hands were tabled.
Nick Blackburn: 
Small Blind: 
Hung Nguyen: 
Blackburn found himself having flopped a pair of eights that held to score him the triple and bring him to over 40,000, increasing his stack to more than 20 big blinds in the process.
