Two Big Stacks and a Triple Up

Ed Clark, Perry Burrell and Ken Adams decided to tangle in a monster pot that would see one person going home and two building their stacks.

The action started when Burrell moved all in preflop for 29,000. Adams then pushed all in over the top for about 200,000. Clark thought for a moment and made the call.

The hands were tabled and Burrell had {A-Hearts} {K-Clubs}, Adams had {4-Spades} {4-Hearts}, and Clark had {Q-Hearts} {Q-Spades}.

The flop came {2-Clubs} {9-Spades} {3-Clubs} followed by the {8-Clubs} on the turn. Lastly the river dropped the {A-Spades} to spare Burrell, but it was too late for Adams.

Burrell tripled up to 92,000 and Clark has 390,000 and the chip lead.
