Triple-Up for Gaassand
Level 18
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Per Gaassand was all-in for around 220,000, as was Dario Marinelli for slightly less, while Magrane Esteve had them both covered in a three-way all-in scenario.
Per Gaassand: A♥Q♣ 
Dario Marinelli: A♦J♦
Magrane Esteve: 10♦10♥
Esteve looked in good shape to claim a double knockout, and remained ahead after the8♣7♣5♦ flop. However the Q♦ hit on the turn, and it was followed by a brick 2♣ river to send Gaassand a lifeline.
"Nice pot" said a table mate - "I needed it!" responded Gaassand.
