Well That's Confusing

Splitting up the pots in the last hand was very messy. Fabio Coppola opened preflop with a raise before Mark Gregorich three-bet. Mark Tenner called from the small blind, as did Coppola.

Tenner led the action on every street of a {3-Spades} {K-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {4-Hearts} {3-Clubs} board. By the turn, Gregorich was all in for his last 13,000, creating a side pot between Coppola and Tenner that included some of the turn bets and all of the river bets.

At showdown, the hands were:

Tenner: {A-Spades} {2-Spades} {4-Spades} {K-Diamonds}
Coppola: {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {Q-Clubs} {4-Clubs}
Gregorich: {A-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds}

Tenner's nut low and two pair, kings and fours, was good for three-quarters of the side pot. Coppola got one-quarter of that pot. As for the main pot, Tenner got half of the low and half of the high, with Gregorich and Coppola each taking a remaining quarter.

By our gorilla math, it would seem that the only person who made money on the hand was Tenner.
