Ian Johns raised from the button then called after Viktor Blom three-bet from the big blind.

Blom raised on a flop of 5♣3♠6♠. Johns called, but after Blom bet the 10♥ turn, he raised. Blom went into the tank and moved all-in for 270,000. Johns snap-called.

Viktor Blom: Q♠9♠ All in
Ian Johns: A♣10♦

Johns hit top pair on the turn, but Blom with a flush draw was still looking for spades.

The river card was the K♥ and Johns was crowned as the 2025 WSOP $10,000 Limit Hold'em Championship champion. He wins $282,455 and a fourth WSOP bracelet while 'Isildur1' takes $188,295 for his second place.
