Garshofsky Finds a Huge Triple

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Mitch  Garshofsky

There was already a chunk of chips in the middle on a board of {j-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{9-Clubs} in a three-way pot between the small blind, Mitch Garshofsky in the big blind, and Danny Gonzales in middle position.

Action was back on Gonzales with both blinds all in and Gonzales thought for over a minute before deciding to call.

Mitch Garshofsky: {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Small Blind: {6-Hearts}{7-Hearts}
Danny Gonzales: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

Both blinds had two pair with Garshofsky looking primed for a triple. The other two were in contention for the side pot with the small blind having two pair, sevens and sixes to be ahead of Gonzales' aces. The river fell {9-Spades} to give Garshofsky a full house in addition to helping improve Gonzales to aces up to secure the side pot.

As a result, Gonzales still finds himself with over 150,000 in chips going into the last break of the night; meanwhile, Garshofsky now sits firmly above average with around 173,000 in his stack.
