Event 1: "Turk" Wins a Flip

Over at Table 33, Bulut "Turk" Ozturk had 825 in front of him in middle position, and the button pushed all in for 7,600. Another middle position player, whose first action we didn't catch, reraised for 20,275 more. Ozturk made the call, effectively putting both players all in. After a flop of {8-Hearts}{k-Spades}{4-Clubs}, the first player put his last few thousand in, and Ozturk made the three-way all in official.

Ozturk: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Button: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Middle position: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}

Ozturk was in complete command with top pair, but a {q-Spades} turn gave the button a prayer. The river was the {10-Spades}, completing the backdoor straight for the button to triple up, but Ozturk still collected the bigger side pot.
