Sadan Turker entered the pot from middle position with a raise to 75,000 only to have Jon Turner three-bet from the hijack to 180,000. Turker passed and Turner collected the pot.

The following hand saw Turner open to 65,000 and successfully picked up the blinds and antes before doing so again on the third hand in a row.

"Ship it!" screamed one of Turner's railbirds as Turner eeked out a rare smile.
