Miholich Scoops A Massive Three-Way All In

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

A player under the gun raised to 8,000 and was called by Kyle Miholich in the cutoff and the player in the big blind leading to a A92 flop.

Both the big blind and the player under the gun checked to Miholich who tossed out a bet of 12,000. The big blind check-jammed for around 90,000 and was quickly followed by the under-the-gun player going all in for around 115,000.

Miholich snap-called and sent all three to a runout with both of his opponents at risk.

Big Blind: AJ
Under The Gun: AQ
Kyle Miholich: 99

The turn card came the 2 and removed all flush out possibilities, leaving Miholich's opponents hoping to hit the last ace in the deck to chop the pot.

When the river came the 7, Miholich left his opponents looking for the exit and secured a missive triple up to rocket up the chip counts.

Miholich is playing this tournament with a charitable backdrop as half of anything he wins will go to a family he is close with whose son paid the ultimate sacrifice protecting the freedoms that we all enjoy everyday. And that is exactly what this event is all about.
