Blocksidge Blocked

After a short stack moved all in for 38,000 the action folded around to Michael Blocksidge who made the call on the button. Cards were flipped and Blocksidge was the one with the advantage with {A-}{8-}. His opponent's {Q-}{10-} was the one who was going to need help, but there were still five cards to come so it was anyone's hand.

The dealer put out five cards and they read {Q-}{9-}{4-}{Q-}{J-} Blocksidge's opponent had a set which was miles ahead of his ace high. Blocksidge has moved below average stack after losing this hand.
