Level 10 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Bryan Taylor moved all in for 30,000 from the big blind, Youness Barakat reshoved for 99,000 under the gun, and Igor D'Ursel put both opponents at risk in the small blind.

Bryan Taylor: 9♥9♣ All in
Youness Barakat: 5♣5♠ All in
Igor D'Ursel: A♥J♥

Taylor was ahead with his nines until the 7♦8♥5♥ flop gave Barakat a set. The turn, though, was the 6♠ and Taylor improved to a straight. The river was the J♦, and Taylor tripled up while Barakat took the side pot off D'Ursel.
