Romaniuk Scores Triple Knockout
Level 19
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Picking up the action partway through the hand, a player on the button, a player in the small blind and Egor Romaniuk in the big blind were each all in. A player in middle position was considering a call for their tournament life. Eventually, the middle position player did make the call and all four players tabled their hands.
Button Player: 
Small Blind Player: 
Middle Position Player: 
Egor Romaniuk: 
Romaniuk had all of his opponents covered but was well behind, likely needing to find one of the two remaining eights in the deck to scoop the pot. That is precisely what happened after the board ran out 
to improve Romaniuk to a set and hand him not only an enormous pot but also a rare triple knockout.
