Bust-outs Before the Break
The flop was with one diamond and one club. We're not sure of the action, but we do know that all three remaining players wound up committing their stacks.
Patros:
Saab:
Tran: unknown
Preflop raiser:
The turn made the hand a bit more interesting, but the river bricked out. Patros' nut straight held up. After all of the side pots were properly calculated, Saab and Tran were eliminated. Patros shot up to 30,200 and the preflop raiser, who had Patros covered, was left with 6,600.
