McKeehen Wins Three-Way Hand With Boat

Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Grant Lang opened under the gun. Lanny Vaysman called on the button and Joe McKeehen came along in the big blind as well

Three players saw the flop come {8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}. It checked to Vaysman who bet 200,000. Joe McKeehen called as did Lang.

The turn was the {j-Clubs} to pair the board. Action checked around.

The river came the {6-Diamonds} to put three diamonds on board. It checked to Vaysman who bet 1,200,000. McKeehen took his time before sliding a tall stack of chips forward for a check-raise to 3,060,000. Lang checked his cards and said "wow" multiple times. Eventually he folded.

Vaysman called swiftly after that. McKeehen tabled the {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades} for the boat. Vaysman flashed the beaten {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}. Meanwhile, Lang claimed that he had folded the king high flush.
