Michalowski Rockets to Triple-Up

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Three players had gotten their chips in preflop, including Rafal Michalowski.

Rafal Michalowski: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{k-Spades}

Michalowski found himself in a great situation but still needed to hold. The {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} provided more outs for him to sweat, but the {6-Hearts} turn and {4-Diamonds} river harmlessly completed the board to keep him ahead and confirm the triple-up.

Merrin had the {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} for a set of queens while his opponent had the {a-Hearts}{q-Spades} for top pair.

The river was the {j-Spades} and Merrin collected the big double up.

Opponent: {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Justin Lunin-Pack: {2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}

Lunin-Pack flopped a set of deuces and improved to quads on the river to crack in opponent's pocket kings.
