Three-Way All In Preflop Leads to a Big One

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Scott Hammett opened to 7,000 from the cutoff, the button flatted and the big blind pushed all in for around 26,000. That prompted Hammett to announce he was also all in for 110,500 total. The player on the button was covered, but not by much and he took some time to think about it. After some thought, he made the call.

"I have kings," Hammett said, as the button player sheepishly turned over queens and the big blind showed {a-Spades}{j-Spades}. The flop was {9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and Hammett was looking good with the {k-Clubs}. The {4-} on the turn provided a wheel sweat, but the {9-} on the river propelled Hammett to at or near the chip lead.
