Shawn Busse raised to 36,000 from under the gun and Dermot Blain moved all in from the small blind for 320,000. Busse took a few minutes in the tank and then called.

Busse showed TcTd and was flipping with Blain’s AcQh. The window card was the Qd and was followed by the Ah and the 5d on the flop, giving Blain top two pair and the lead.

The turn was the Js, giving Busse a straight draw, but the river was the 9s and Blain doubled up, leaving Busse with just under 10 big blinds.

Dermot Blain – 664,000 (41 bb)
Shawn Busse – 155,000 (9 bb)
