Enormous Three-Way Pot
![[user75311]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Ayaz Mahmood and two other opponents built a pot worth 18,800 heading to a flop. It fell 
and the first opponent checked. The second opponent moved his final 7,500 into the middle and Mahmood made the call in position. After some thought, the player that had checked moved his stack in for 16,450. Mahmood clearly was pained that he would have to commit more chips to this pot but eventually threw in the necessary chips for the call.
Opponent 1: 
Opponent 2: 
Mahmood: 
The second opponent was currently in the lead for the main pot with just a pair of Aces and also had the nut flush draw. The first opponent was in the lead for the side pot with just a pair of Tens and also had an open-ended straight draw. Mahmood had just a pair of Fives and an inside-straight draw.
The turn was the 
which gave Opponent number 1 the lead with trip Tens and the river 
boated him up to ship the near 60,000 chip pot. Mahmood is near dead with about 1,000 left and no rebuy lammers.
