Quignard Triples his Short Stack

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Salah Eddine Taleb opened to 3,200 and got a call from Erez Elchanan. Pierre Quignard three-bet jammed for 13,400 and got calls from both his opponents.

Taleb led out for 5,500 after the {7-Spades}{3-Clubs}{6-Spades} came on the flop. Elchanan tanked for 90 seconds before he folded.

Quignard turned over {q-Spades}{q-Clubs} and was ahead of the {a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} held by his opponent.

The {j-Spades} on the turn might not seem like an important card but it was. The {a-Spades} came on the river to give Elchanen two pair but it also improved Quignard to a flush to win the hand and triple up his stack.
