Blain Busts to Blom With Kings Versus Aces
After building a big stack early on with aces versus kings, Dermot Blain was just on the other side of this very setup to crash out in level five while Dzmitry Urbanovich also busted an opponent with a "sick call" according to Kai Münster to have an impressive start into Day 1a.
Blain raised to 50,000 and Blom three-bet to 150,000 in the small blind. Blain then made it 275,000 only for Blom to click it up to 725,000. It took just a few moments until Blain announced all in for more than 2.2 million, and Blom confirmed the all in with the dealer before snap-calling with the slightly superior stack.

Viktor Blom: 
The 
flop crushed all hopes of a possible upset, and Blain was left drawing dead on the 
turn to make the 
river a mere formality.
