Nitsche Triples His Hopes, Mameche Wins Big Side Pot
Elias Fisz raised from under the gun to 2,500 and received calls from Slimane Mameche in middle position and Desmond O'Leary in the hijack. Dominik Nitsche was short in the cutoff and went all-in for his last 7,000 chips. The action folded back to Mameche who called, as did O'Leary.
The duo checked the flop for the side pot before the turn was put on the felt. Mameche bet out 12,000, to which O'Leary responded by going all-in himself for 43,000 chips. Nameche called the rest off and all three players showed their hands.
Dominik Nitsche:
Desmond O'Leary:
Slimane Mameche:
Mameche was on course to scoop the whole pot with his turned flush, but the gave Nitsche the nuts. Nitsche tripled up, while Mameche was not unhappy with the side pot.
O'Leary was the only one left without chips and had to leave the tournament area during the last level of the day.
