Haraldstad Scoops a Three-Way Pot
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Joachim Haraldstad opened to 50,000 in the cutoff and was called by Maduka Meragal on the button and Pieter Aerts in the big blind. The flop came Q♠J♦3♦ and the action checked around to the 10♦ on the turn.
Haraldstad was the first to throw in a bet of 60,000 and Meragal raised to 180,000. Aerts flat-called and Haraldstad also came along to the K♥ on the river. All three players checked this time and Aerts showed Q♦J♣ for two pair. Haraldstad tabled K♠9♥ for a straight and Meragal's J♠10♠ went into the muck.
