Two Birds, One Stone For Weber
![[user66118]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
A short-stacked player was all in for about 15,000 preflop, and he found action in two places with a chance to triple up.
The flop brought 
with the small blind checking in the dark. Across the table, Matthew Weber was the third man in the hand, and he eyeballed his opponent's remaining stack before making a covering bet. The small blind had about 62,000 chips left, and he toyed with the decision for a couple long minutes before making the call to put himself at risk, too!
Showdown
Weber: 
Small blind: 
Short stack: 
"Oh, no!" Mr. Short Stack lamented as he saw the bad news. He was sharing outs, and both he and the small blind were two cards from the exit.
The turn 
was a blank, and the river 
further improved Weber's hand. He makes trip nines in the end, claiming the tournament lives of two more players. We're down under 65 left now, and Weber has upped his chip count to a respectable 249,000.
