Blain had a gut shot and an overpair versus two pair and an open ended straight draw. Blain, who was covered by 500 chips was the at risk player and on the
turn, his opponent picked up a better two pair.
However, on the
river Blain got there with a straight to trump his opponents hand. His opponent, jokingly said ''I had three pair, no wait, four pair!'', with bemusement as Blain raked in the double up.
