Three Way All In Brings Sweaty Runout

Matt Warburton

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Patrick Donohoe moved all in from middle position with a short stack of 49,000, less than four big blinds. Jacek Skiscim pushed all in over the top for 263,000 and Mazalahedwa Bako also moved all in with slightly more chips.

Patrick Donohoe: 4♥3♥
Jacek Skiscim: 10♦10♠
Mazalahedwa Bako: A♠K♦

The board ran out 10♥9♥A♥A♣5♦. The flop brought Donohoe a flush, much to the delight of the other players and spectators. Skiscim had also flopped a set of tens and Bako paired his ace.

The turn brought the second ace to give Bako trips and gave Skiscim a full house, tens full of aces.

Skiscim held to win the pot, Bako was left short, and Donohoe was eliminated from the event.
