Escote Triples
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Oscar Alache opened to 12,000 in middle position and Sergi Escote three-bet jammed a stack of around 60,000 from middle position. El Mostafa Bel Khayate then four-bet to around 170,000 in the big blind and Alache used several time banks before calling with slightly less.
Sergi Escote: A♣Q♣ 
Oscar Alache: A♠K♠
El Mostafa Bel Khayate: A♦7♦
"Seven is good! Seven is good!" Khayate kept cheering, but it was a queen that landed on the flop of J♣3♠Q♠ as the board finished out 9♣Q♦ to earn Escote a triple as a decent side pot went Alache's way.
