Altomonte Eliminated as Caldas Gambles to Triple

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Joseph Altomonte
Joseph Altomonte

The under-the-gun player raised to 2,600 before the player next to act dropped a stack of 5,000 chips across the line for a raise to 9,600. Joseph Altomonte was on the button and moved in for his 18,000 before Carlos Caldas announced "gamble city," and called off his 10,800.

The original raiser folded and the three-bettor instantly called.

Carlos Caldas: Q♠J♣10♠4♣
Joseph Altomonte: K♣K♠J♠8♥
Third Player: A♣A♥K♦8♣

The board ran out Q♦6♦3♦4♥8♦, for Caldas to make two pair and triple up, while the 2023 $600 Pot-Limit Omaha champion Altomonte was eliminated.
