Weiss Smacks the River to Triple
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Limits: 40,000-140,000
Brian Hastings raised to 100,000 under the gun and Sam Soverel called in the small blind. Dennis Weiss then moved all in for 170,000 in the big blind and Hastings announced pot. Soverel repotted and Hastings called for his last 1,100,000.
Dennis Weiss: K♠9♣8♥5♦ 
Brian Hastings: A♣A♦10♠7♥
Sam Soverel: A♠A♥7♠4♥
Both Hastings and Soverel showed two aces and had Weiss at risk as the flop came 2♥Q♠10♣. "Jack!" Weiss pleaded going to the turn, which came the 6♦.
"Jack!" he repeated, and he got his wish this time as the J♦ river gave him a straight and the triple up, while Hastings and Soverel chopped the side pot.
