MarcC

A three-way pot just emerged with one player all in and Vince Van Patten and Jared Okun fighting it out for a healthy side pot. The hand had reached the river stage and the board was {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

{6-Diamonds}

{5-Spades}

{3-Clubs}

{Q-Hearts}

.

Van Patten bet big, forcing Okun to leave a lot of chips in the pot for Van Patten, who tabled {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

{5-Diamonds}

for the flopped full house. He didn't win the main pot though as the all-in player showed {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{Q-Diamonds}

for the rivered bigger full house.

Van Patten is on 55,000 now.

Okun manged to double up the next hand though, when he managed to win a race with A-K versus the pocket nines of an opponent. An all-important ace fell on the turn. He's on 44,000 right now.
