Blom Pulls Ahead
Viktor Blom raised to 55,000 on the button and Galen Hall three-bet to 125,000 from the small blind. Blom called to see the flop come down 
.
Hall bet 175,000, unable to shake Blom who called. The 
hit the turn and Hall slowed down with a check. Blom fired 275,000, quickly receiving a call from Galen. The 
river was checked by Hall and Blom quickly announced 575,000.
While Hall mulled it over, Blom asked, "You have a jack?" Hall folded, saying he had a jack and a flush draw. Blom collected the chips, saying he had queen-ten for a missed straight draw.
