Yay, Triple-Up
Rob Perelman was kind enough to let us know about an interesting hand that played out just prior to the break. Apparently it all started with a player opening to 225. The small-blind player called and so too did Rob Perelman in the big blind.
The flop would see the small blind check, Perelman bet 225 and both his opponents call. On the
turn the action was checked to the preflop aggressor who bet 1,200. The small blind called and then Perelman shoved for an extra 4,025. The player next to act called and then the small blind shoved for a further 2,000. The one remaining opponent called and all three players turned their hands over.

Perelman would be hoping the river card wouldn't give his opponent a heart and in his words, it was the "eight of not hearts," that landed on the felt to send him the huge pot.
