Three-Bet Leaves Three Chips

In one of the few preflop three bets we've seen all day, a player in middle position raised limped and got raised to 700. When the limper shoved, he got called.

The limper showed pocket 10s and ran into his opponent's aces, which held up after a board of {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{4-Spades}{7-Clubs}. The two players were almost evenly stacked, with the limper having just 75 chips left at the end of the hand.
