Tanouye Stacks Two With a Two-Outer

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Jeffrey Tanouye
Jeffrey Tanouye

All the chips went in before the flop three ways; Jeffrey Tanouye had the largest of the three stacks but just barely had Jon Turner covered. The third player in middle position was substantially shorter.

Jeffrey Tanouye: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Jon Turner: {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Middle position: {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}

Tanouye found himself dominated and needed a lot of help to take the lead. He got it when the flop fell {Q-Hearts}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts} to give him top set. The {3-Clubs} on the turn meant Tanouye had a lock on the pot and he took it to stack both of his opponents after the {4-Diamonds} hit the river.
