Once, Twice, Three Times a Laggy

Marcel Koch: Sole Survivor Surviving, Until Now
Marcel Koch: Sole Survivor Surviving, Until Now
On the non-televised table, chip leader Andrew Pantling is in full steamroller mode, having moved his 1,200,000 stack all in three times in the last fifteen minutes. He's been putting a lot of pressure on his much shorter-stacked opponents. He did it on the button, he did it on the cutoff, he did it in the hijack - but it was this third time that Marcel Koch called all in.

Koch had {6-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} and was up against the {K-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} of Pantling. The {Q-Diamonds} was the first card off on the flop, and with no improvement, Koch, the actual Sole Survivor, exited the Irish Open to a hearty round of applause.
