Tsui's Chips Chopped Up
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ethan Erdeljac opened to 5,000 from under the gun before Justin Wong slid out a three-bet to 18,000 on his left. Justin Tsui was next to act and he fired a four-bet to 36,000.
Action folded back around to Erdeljac, who moved all in. Wong followed by shoving his larger stack, and Tsui quickly called covering both opponents.
Ethan Erdeljac: A♠K♥ 
Justin Wong: A♥K♠
Justin Tsui: Q♠Q♦
Tsui's pocket queens were in good shape until the 7♥10♣K♦ flop gave both opponents top pair. The A♦ turn only improved Erdeljac and Wong, while the 8♣ river left Tsui behind.
Erdeljac and Wong chopped the main pot, with Wong also taking the side pot and leaving Tsui much shorter.
