Eckhart Picks Up Aces in Three-Way All In; Arnwine Wins a Massive Flip
Toby Worth moved all in for 46,000 in the hijack and Nicholas Rigby called in the cutoff. Nicholas Eckhart then reshoved for 68,500 in the big blind, and Rigby called once more.
Toby Worth: K♦Q♥
Nicholas Eckhart: A♣A♦
Nicholas Rigby: A♠10♦
"Just two tens, no big deal," Rigby said as the flop came K♥J♠5♦, giving him a straight draw. "Queen ball," he added, but he improved no further on the 3♥ turn and 8♠ river as Eckhart scooped the pot, earning a double up off Rigby while Worth was sent to the rail.
At the other table, Justin Arnwine and Brandon Padula were tangling in a massive pot as Padula got in his entire 220,000 from the button and Arnwine put him at risk in the hijack.
Brandon Padula: A♥Q♥
Justin Arnwine: 10♦10♣
It was a massive flip with the tournament chip lead at stake, and Arnwine's tens held on through the 2♠7♥7♠K♦2♥ board to earn him the knockout and send his stack soaring past 600,000.
