Putallaz Triples with a Flush
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
The action was caught up when Eric Putallaz in the big blind moved all-in for 23,200 from the big blind on a flop of J♥Q♥10♥. Bastien Riviere in the cutoff called, but Hugo Magalhaes in the small blind raised all-in for 91,900. "Gamble, gamble," Riviere said while calling after some time.
Eric Putallaz: 7♥3♥
Hugo Magalhaes: Q♦10♠
Bastien Riviere: A♥A♦
All three players flopped something, especially Putallaz with a flush. Riviere asked for the king of hearts for a royal flush but the 9♠8♠ runout kept Putallaz in the lead, so he tripled up.
The turn and the river however completed a straight on the board so Magalhaes and Riviere split the side pot.
