There was about 3,300 in the middle and the flop read 
when John Racener checked his big blind, and Brandon Meyers did the same from the hijack. Ben Dobson, however, decided to bet. Racener responded with a shove for 4,100 which both Meyers and Dobson called.
The turn brought the latter two the on which they both checked through to the

for trip aces, and Racener got up and showed
