Aido Triples; Blom Wins Side Pot to Eliminate Oya
Level 17
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Sergio Aido shoved for 725,000 and Vitkor Blom called from the small blind. Masashi Oya then shoved all in from the big blind for around 2,400,000, and Blom called.
Sergio Aido: A♣Q♦ 
Masashi Oya: J♦J♣
Viktor Blom: A♥K♠
Blom had an opportunity to eliminate two opponents and scoop a huge pot but it was Aido who took the lead on the 4♣Q♥5♣ flop.
Aido turned trips on the Q♠ turn which put him as a big favorite to win the main pot. The side pot went Blom's way as an A♦ river gave him top pair which sent Oya to the rail.
