Level 10 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Taylor von Kriegenbergh opened to 20,000 and Nick Maimone three-bet to 50,000.

Shaun Deeb then four-bet all in for 296,000. Von Kriegenbergh then five-bet all in for 160,000. Maimone contemplated his decision before eventually calling to put two players at risk.

Taylor von Kriegenbergh: A♥K♦ All in
Shaun Deeb: 5♦5♠ All in
Nick Maimone: 10♥10♣

Maimone was in good shape as the flop came 7♦6♥3♣. However, the K♣ paired Von Kriegenbergh on the turn and he tripled after the 3♥ came on the river. Deeb, meanwhile, was sent to the rail.
