Hunter Gets Lucky to Treble Up
Level 15
: 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Hunter Cichy can breathe more easily now that he has 111,000 chips in front of him, courtesy of a very fortunate treble up.
Jason Vanstrom raised, Nipun Java flatted and Cichy squeezed all in for 36,000. Vanstrom then reshoved and Java called, creating a huge pot.
Vanstrom: 
Java: 
Cichy: 
"Just take them now!" said Cichy about his lowly pocket fives, but it's a good thing they weren't because the board ran 
, gifting Cichy an unlikely straight. Vanstrom busted in the hand and Java lost a decent chunk of his stack.
