Pocket Pairs Abound in Three-Way All-In Pot
Level 9
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
We're not sure how the action unfolded, but we do know it resulted in a three-way all-in pot. Alberto Perez was the short stack with around 15,000, while Tamper Wheeler had 26,000 more than that. Both players were at risk by a big-stacked opponent.

Alberto Perez: 
Opponent: 
Perez had the third-best pair but he jumped into the lead when the 
flop delivered him a set. The running 
turn and 
river improved him to a full house and he tripled in the hand. Meanwhile, Wheeler won a decent side pot to stay alive in the tournament.
