With roughly 20,000 in the pot on a {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{7-Spades} flop, Espen Jorstad had 16,500 over the betting line in middle position, and Juan Pardo raised to 37,000 in the big blind. Jorstad called, and the two players checked down the {7-Hearts} turn and {8-Diamonds} river.

Pardo tabled {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for busted straight and flush draws, and Jorstad showed {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades} for a better two pair to collect the pot.
