Goeken Triples with Broadway; Kitzerow Takes from Apessos in Side Pot

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Larry Goeken shoved his last 10,000 into the pot from early position while Spyros Apessos called from the small blind and Bill Kitzerow came along from the big blind.

The flop came {j-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and Apessos bet 10,000. Kitzerow called to start a side pot.

The turn was {10-Hearts} and Apessos continued for another 10,000, while Kitzerow made another check-call.

The river was {j-Diamonds} and Apessos went for 10,000 once more. Kitzerow made the reluctant call, turning over {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}. Apessos turned over {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for the busted flush and Kitzerow claimed the side pot.

Meanwhile, Goeken turned over {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} to take the main pot for a triple up with a Broadway straight.

The board ran out {10-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} and Trehey's fives held to secure the double and leave Rapp with crumbs.
