Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Action picked up on a board reading {5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{6-Spades}{3-Spades} and the dealer counting down three stacks after a three-way preflop all-in. Preflop action replayed courtesy of TJ Shulman.

Shulman raised it to 12,000 from under-the-gun and a middle-position player made the call. With action on Julian Montois in late position he then three-bet shoved and Shulman made the call. At that point the middle-position player then went all in and Shulman also made that call, having both players covered, and all three players tabled their hands.

TJ Shulman: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}
Julian Montois: {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}
All-in Player: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Shulman was way ahead preflop, but that all changed on the turn after he was out-flopped by Montois, but he could have still hit the case ace for a better set. Instead the dealer fanned the case six on the turn, which secured the triple-up for Montois, eliminated the other all-in player and put a slight dent in Shulman's stack.
