Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Action folded to Christian Pedersen in middle position, who raised to 46,000 and picked up three callers.
All four players checked the K♦7♣5♦ flop.
The blinds checked again on the 10♣ turn, Pedersen bet 90,000, but Viktor Blom on the button raised to 260,000. The blinds folded, Pedersen moved all in, and Blom called, sending the cards on their backs.
Viktor Blom: A♣J♣
Christian Pedersen: K♠Q♥
Blom had plenty of outs, but the K♥ on the river was none of them, sealing his elimination.
