Level 11 : 800/1,600, 300 ante

We came upon a three-way all in on a flop of {10-Spades}{j-Spades}{8-Hearts}, with Jeff Sowell in the small blind holding {q-Spades}{8-Spades} for a pair and a combo draw against a player in early position with {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} and a player in middle position with {a-Spades}{4-Spades}. There was already about 120,000 in the middle before everyone got stacks in.

The turn was the {q-Hearts} and the river the {q-Diamonds}, giving Sowell queens full. He had just under 115,000, covering the player with the nut flush draw, who had about 100,000. The player with kings sent over the full amount and Sowell moved to about 450,000.
