McAllister Rises to the Top
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ryan McAllister won a three-way all-in when his 9♣9♥ flopped a set on the Q♦10♣9♦ flop. A shorter stack got it in with the J♦10♥ for a pair and open-ender while Eng Soon Ewe had both covered and revealed the A♣A♠.
The 6♦ turn and J♣ river changed nothing and McAllister jumped to eleven times the starting stack. After that, he won several other pots and leaped well ahead of everyone else at the table.
