Haoyenan Triples Up as Varnaev's Hand Goes From Best to Worst
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
A three-way all-in pot played out between Sergey Fedyaev, Lan Haoyenan, and Sergei Varnaev with them all getting their stacks in the middle.
Lan Haoyenan: A♦10♦ 
Sergei Varnaev: 10♣10♠
Sergey Fedyaev: K♥10♥
Fedyaev had both players covered and Haoyenan held the shortest stack with 70,000, meaning he would need to beat both opponents in order to stay alive. Varnaev had the best hand and with 82,000 in his stack, had to effectively win a flip in order to triple up.
However, Varnaev's hand went from best to worst on the A♣K♣6♣ flop, though he did add a flush draw to give himself a chance at survival. The J♥ turn gave each player a gutshot to Broadway, but the 5♠ river was a brick, which meant Varnaev was eliminated, and Haoyenan tripled up.
