Three-Way Four-Bet Pot Provides First Elimination
Level 1
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Alexandre Henry raised to 2,500 under the gun. Pavel Izotov made a small three-bet to 6,000 in the cutoff, which "Sonic" called on the button. Henry then four-bet to 25,500, which both opponents called.
Henry continued for 50,000 on the J♠6♣5♠ flop. Izotov got out of the way, but "Sonic" stuck around and called. The 9♦ turn slowed Henry down, prompting "Sonic" to jam all in. Henry quickly called off his stack of 135,000.
Alexandre Henry: A♠A♥K♥Q♣ 
"Sonic": K♣Q♦8♦7♣
"Sonic" had turned the nuts, leaving Henry drawing dead as the 8♥ river arrived. Henry quickly headed to the exit while "Sonic" scooped the pot of over 425 big blinds.
