Patch Busts Two

We recently started our quest to find the biggest stacks in the field, and that lead us to Steve Patch who sits with about 25,000. We asked the table how he got there, and they gladly obliged.

Apparently with a {3-Diamonds}{Q-}{10-Diamonds} board exposed in the middle of the felt three players got into a raising match that ended with two of them all in and a call from Patch.

Patch: {q-}{9-}
Opponent 1: {Q-}{3-}
Opponent 2: {3-}{3-}

Patch was in a really bad spot, he was trailing two opponents and desperately needed some help if he wished to scoop this pot. He received plenty of help when the {Q-} fell on the turn and even more when the {9-} landed on the river. Patch went run-run full house and knocked out two players in doing so.
