Moon Triples, Mangold Out

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante
Jason Mangold
Jason Mangold

Matt Higgins had 13,500 in front of him from middle position, and was facing two shoves; one from Jason Mangold in the hijack for 46,600, and another from Chris Moon on the button for 24,400. Higgins pantomimed kissing his chips away before placing in a call to put both players at risk.

Chris Moon: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Jason Mangold: {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Matt Higgins: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}

Moon's queens held on a {2-Hearts}{3-Spades}{k-Spades}{7-Spades}{7-Clubs} board to earn the triple, while Higgins essentially broke even with the side pot, and Mangold was left to hit the rail.
