Jean Ateba Gets Lucky to Stay Alive

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Patryk Poterek opened for 35,000 under the gun with the {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} and Jean Ateba three-bet all in for 276,000 holding the {a-Clubs}{10-Spades} in the cutoff. Daniel Coupal then four-bet jammed from the small blind for 687,000 with the {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs} and Poterek, who had 457,000 back, hit the tank before folding.

Ateba's best shot at staying alive was to catch an ace, but no ace would come. Instead, the flop came an improbable {10-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} to give him the lead with trips!

Neither the {5-Diamonds} turn nor {9-Diamonds} river helped Coupal, and he sent over a big part of his stack.
