Viktor Blom opened from under the gun and received a call from Bruno Portaro on the button. Michael Rocco then three-bet from the big blind, and they both called.

The flop came 4♦8♣Q♥ and Rocco bet. Blom raised, Portaro called and Rocco called.

Action checked around to Blom who bet on the J♦ turn. Both opponents called before all three players checked the 5♦ river.

Rocco had the nut-low with A♣5♣4♥2♥ while Blom had two pair, queens and jacks with A♦Q♣J♠4♣ for the other half.
