HillKerby

Level 22 : 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

"All in, all in, all in," exclaimed the dealer to declare a three-way all-in preflop scenario. Ben Berman was in the small blind and all in for the main pot, with Dylan Johnson in the big blind and Behrouz Keshtavar under the gun also in contention for a side pot. Johnson covered both players.

Ben Berman:
Behrouz Keshtavar:
Dylan Johnson:

The board ran out to come clean for Keshtavar to win it all, bringing him just shy of a million in chips.

Moments later, he knocked out Ken Ledwos in a blind-on-blind battle when the two got stacks in on the turn with a board reading .

Ken Ledwos:
Behrouz Keshtavar:

Keshtavar faded the chop as the river gave him a full house and launched him even further up the counts.
