Michael Surick raised from the cutoff, Blake Purvis reraised from the big blind to 3,200, and Surick moved all in for 23,700. Purvis thought for a while before he called with JhJd.

Surick turned over 10s10d, and needed to improve to stay alive.

There was a ten in the window as the board came 10c5s4c3c8s, and Surick flopped a set of tens to win the pot and double up in chips.

Michael Surick  –  48,000  (120 bb)
Blake Purvis  –  80,000  (200 bb)
