Michael Roche Triples Up

From late position Michael Roche raised to 8,900. Marc Tschirch reraised from the small blind to 18,000 and Ed Martin moved all in for 26,700 from the button.

Roche calls all in and Tschirch, who has them both covered, makes the call.

Roche: {A-Diamonds} {7-Hearts}
March Tschirch: {A-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}
Ed Martin: {K-Spades} {K-Hearts}

The board came {10-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} allowing Roche to triple up with the worst hand.

Roche - 86,000
Tschirch - 62,000
Martin - 600

On the next hand Ed Martin is eliminated.
