Wright Finds Ten to Triple

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Three players were heading to a flop with all action completed. Ray Wright was the shortest stack and a side pot was created between Ira Kroopneck and a player in middle position.

Ray Wright: {k-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Ira Kroopneck: {3-Spades}{3-Hearts}
Middle Position: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Just before the dealer fanned out the flop, Wright said to "make sure to write that the ten came in the window". The ten didn't come in the window, but it did come on the {4-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} flop and that was good enough to put him ahead. The {2-Clubs} and {5-Hearts} completed the board and Wright tripled while Kroopneck took the side pot.
