Purohit Spikes the River in Three-Way All In
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
A player on the button moved all in for 16,000, Dinesh Purohit put in his last 44,500 in the small blind, and Andrew Phillips called in the big blind to put both opponents at risk.
Button: A♣Q♣
Dinesh Purohit: A♥J♠
Andrew Phillips: A♠K♦
Phillips had both opponents dominated as the flop came A♦Q♥3♥, giving the button the lead with top two pair. The turn was the 10♥, but the K♠ river improved Purohit to a straight as he went from worst to first to scoop the pot, earning a double up while sending the button to the rail.
