Three-Way All In

Three players -- including Tim Horan and Martin Cardno -- got tangled up preflop with Cardno covering his opponents. With half of the table all in and no further betting action, the hands were shown down:

Showdown:
Cardno: {7-Clubs} {7-Diamonds}
Horan: {K-Diamonds} {K-Spades}
Opponent: {A-Hearts} {10-Clubs}

There wasn't much drama as the board came {5-Spades} {5-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} {2-Hearts} {4-Hearts}, keeping Horan in the lead and nearly tripling him up to 38,000. The player with ace-ten was eliminated, and Martin Cardno is down to 28,500.
