Blom Goes Runner-Runner to Survive
Level 26
: Limits 120,000/240,000, 0 ante
Daniel Negreanu raised on the button and Viktor Blom made the call in the big blind.
Blom checked the K♥2♠J♠ flop and Negreanu continued with a bet after flopping a flush. Blom announced a raise and his remaining chips were in the middle after Negreanu three-bet.
Viktor Blom: Q♦10♦6♥4♠ 
Daniel Negreanu: A♠J♥9♥8♠
Negreanu was guaranteed the high, while Blom needed a low to hit. The 8♣ turn got Blom halfway there, while the A♦ river saw his low completed to chop the pot and survive.
