Three-Way All In Sees Baluska Cooked

Level 23 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Chips just flew on Table 519 as two all-in bets and a call were announced. There was already around 430,000 in the pot on a board reading {3-Spades}{j-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and both Marton Czuczor and Nicolas Careme were all in for their last 220,000 and 600,000 respectively. Nicolas Careme had called them both and all three pairs of hands were tabled.

Nicolas Careme: {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Marton Czuczor: {10-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Robert Baluska: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}.

Careme and Czuczor both had straights and needed to fade Baluska's outs to the full house and the full scoop. The river came {a-Diamonds} and Czuczor and Careme split the main pot while Careme took the remainder of Baluska's chips in the side pot and sent him to the showers.

Pierce McKellar raised to 50,000 under the gun, action folded to Erkut Yilmaz, who called from the button. Action was on Kai McCue-Unciano who three-bet to 210,000 from the small blind, McKellar and Yilmaz called.

The flop of {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{5-Hearts} was checked around and the dealer burned and turned the {q-Diamonds}. Action was checked to McKellar who bet 250,000 and that was enough to get both of his opponents to fold.
