Double Elimination for "P0ker H0"

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

In the last hand of Level 5, the jovial Mark "P0ker H0" Kroon won a big pot that sent two disappointed players to the rail. We missed all the details, but we did catch a few. What we do know is a short-stacked player got all in preflop and was up against Kroon and another player. The latter two ended up getting all in on the {7-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} flop, and the cards were turned up.

Shortest Stack: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Middle Stack: {10-}{10-}
Kroon: {9-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

Kroon had flopped trips, and both his opponents were clearly upset. Neither the {7-Clubs} turn nor {6-Clubs} river changed a thing, and Kroon scored the double elimination.
