Armstrong Flops the Joint For a Double Knockout
Level 3
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
A three-way all in was developing as the cutoff moved got the rest of his 36,000 in the middle on a flop of Q♥A♣J♥, an under-the-gun player also shoved for 34,000, and James Armstrong in the big blind had both players covered and at risk.
Cutoff: A♥3♥
Under-the-gun player: A♠Q♣
James Armstrong: K♥10♠
Armstrong had flopped the nut straight, while the cutoff had top pair and a flush draw and the under-the-gun player two pair. The 9♠ turn was safe for Armstrong, while the 4♠ fell on the river and Armstrong scooped the massive pot to send both opponents to the rail.
