Shine Comes Out Ahead in Three-Way All-In Cooler

Level 2 : Blinds 100/100, 0 ante
Emmet Shine
Emmet Shine

Action was caught on the turn with three players in the pot and nearly 10,000 chips in the middle. The board read {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Spades}, and Albert Sapiona had gone all-in from the cutoff for 13,500. James McDevitt responded by going all-in himself for the starting stack of 30,000, barely covering Emmet Shine in the big blind.

Shine thought for a while but decided he could not fold his hand, and all three players' cards were tabled.

Albert Sapiona: {7-Clubs}{5-Spades}
Emmet Shine: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
James McDevitt: {7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

Sapiona was drawing dead with his straight, while McDevitt needed to fill up to beat Shine's Full house.

The river fell the uneventful {9-Hearts} and Shine came out the victor in this huge three-way clash. Meanwhile, Sapiona was eliminated and McDevitt was left on fumes.
