Mikkel Plum brought in, Viktor Blom completed, and Jyri Merivirta called. Plum two-bet before Blom wanted to call but accidentally put in a third bet.
Merivirta called, after which Plum four-bet. Both Blom and Merivirta called to fourth street, where Plum checked. Blom bet and was called by Merivirta, and Plum raised. Blom and Merivirta tossed in calling chips.
On fifth street, Plum put in another bet and received two calls. The action checked to Plum on sixth, after which the same betting action took place.
Seventh street saw Plum being called by both once more. He showed A♥A♣6♣ for a pair of aces and an eight-low.
Blom tabled 5♥5♦4♥ for two pair, but it was no good against the 10♦8♦Xx of Merivirta, who played a higher two two pair and chopped up Blom with Mikkel.
