Brown Takes Down a Massive Three Way Pot

Roxanne Johnson

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

This juicy pot was retold by the players to PokerNews:

The player under the gun limped, an early position player raised to 11,000, the late position player three-bet to 50,000 and Camille Brown four-bet all in for 150,000. The limper exited and the other two players called.

Early position: 10x10x All in
Late position: 8x8x All in
Camille Brown: JxJx

The board ran out safe for Brown's jacks with 10x7x5xKxKx and she scooped the pot. The count is a little shorter as she lost a couple hands after that big scoop.

Camille Brown	127,000 51,000	51,000

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Mike Lu opened to 6,000 from the cutoff. The player on the button called, and the small blind made it 14,000. Jonathan Di Matteo was in the big blind and four-bet all in for around 120,000.

Mike Lu, who had a fairly short stack, called all in for 43,000. The button folded and the player in the small blind needed a long time for a decision, before folding Q♦Q♣ face-up.

Mike Lu: A♥A♦ All in
Jonathan Di Matteo: A♣K♣

The flop came Q♠K♥9♦. Di Matteo flopped a pair of kings but Lu was still in great shape. The player in the small blind still had his queens laying in front of him - he would have been way ahead with a set.

The turn 2♦ and river 9♣ did not help Di Matteo and Lu was able to double up and then-some.

Player	Chips	Progress
Mike Lu	107,000 107,000	107,000
Jonathan Di Matteo	75,000 75,000	75,000
