Child(s) Abuse

We heard a rush of commotion coming from Table #41, and after rushing over to take a look we discovered a three-way all in developing.

James Peters open-jammed for his last 30,000 or so, and Lee Childs did the same for about 55,000.

That's when Timothy Little looked down to find the prettiest sight in poker: in the hole and players already all in and at risk.

Little snap-called off for his remaining stack, which was slightly less than Childs' at the time, and the three players showed down. Childs produced the for a solid pocket pair, while Peters could only muster the for a short-stack plunge. Little was well ahead with his pocket rockets, and if the board came clean he would notch a huge triple up.

The flop rolled out to keep Little in the lead, and he was now fading the only two jacks in the deck (along with a miracle runner-runner spike for Peter's king-high hand). Childs called for the jack of diamonds, knowing exactly how much of a longshot his prayer really was.

Turn:

Just like that, a savior rained down from the heavens to give Childs a full house, and when the river failed to produce a third ace, the massive 155,000 pot was shipped his way.
