Vu Vaults over 100,000

Level 5 : 300/500, 500 ante
Timothy Vu
Timothy Vu

Timothy Vu just alerted the PokerNews team that his third bullet is indeed the charm as he's just won a massive pot to jump well over 100,000 chips.

According to Vu, he opened to 3,000 under the gun and was called in middle position by Robert Fortuno, and then three-bet to 17,000 by Luis Yepezcarmona. Vu called and Fortuno also called, leaving himself with approximately 8,000 behind.

The flop came {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and Vu jammed for his remaining 20,000, Fortuno committed his last chips and Yepezcarmona called as well.

Timothy Vu: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Robert Fortuno: {6-Spades}{4-Spades}
Luis Yepezcarmona: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}

Vu's set of jacks had both opponents crushed, and he would hold on through the {2-Spades}{4-Clubs} runout to boost his stack to among the chip leaders.
