The 2♠ turn and A♣ river both went check-check, and Blom tabled 10♣3♣, for trip tens.
A few hands later, Martirosian raised to 110,000 in the hijack, Blom flatted on the button, and Leon Sturm called in the big blind. The flop came K♣8♠7♥, and Martirosian check-called a bet of 100,000 from Blom, with Sturm getting out of the way.
