Three-Way All In

[user22113]

At one of the final four tables three players were all in. Unfortunately for the other players in the tournament hoping to lose a few players and move up a the pay scale there was no such luck. The short stack doubled up, the second player took a side pot keeping him in the tournament and the third player had them both covered in chips and has now taken a hit to his stack.

PokerNews has been informed that after we left the floor last night following the first of the €20,000 Sit' n Go tourneys, the fellas went at it quite a few more times. A total of three €20,000 SNGs were played with essentially the same group of players including Joe Hachem, Greg Raymer, Johnny Lodden, Haralabos Voulgaris, and a number of European and Norwegian internet pros. Following the third of the €20,000 SNGs, the guys played one last SNG, this time for €40,000.
