Lakhal Spikes the River For a Triple Bustout
Level 9
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Mohamed Lakhal had a raise of 3,500 in front of him from the cutoff before the button moved all in for 20,800. The small blind reshoved for 31,500, while Petru Tarlev also put in his last 32,000 in the big blind. Lakhal called to put all three players at risk.
Button: A♦A♥ 
Small Blind: 9♦9♣
Petru Tarlev: K♦K♥
Mohamed Lakhal: J♦10♦
The button was ahead with his aces as the flop came Q♦7♠4♣, but the 8♥ turn gave Lakhal outs to a straight. The 9♠ fell on the river and the small blind hit a set, but the same card gave Lakhal his straight and sent all three opponents to the rail.
