Temm Triples Up in Three-Way All-in
Keith Temm open-shoved in hijack for 2,300,000 sending Michael Ruane in cutoff to the tank. After a few seconds, Ruane announced all-in prompting a series of folds to the big blind.
To the surprise of the table, which evoked an audible gasp of surprise, big blind player Sergio Da Silva Veloso picked up a whole tower of 500,000-chips and jammed it in the middle for a call, taking all three to a showdown.
Keith Temm: K♣K♦
Michael Ruane: 10♦10♣
Sergio Da Silva Veloso: 9♣9♠
Temm looked at a potential triple up on the flop Q♠K♥3♥ which gave him a set. Ruane and Veloso still had minimal outs for the main pot but were mainly fighting for the side pot worth around 14,000,000.
The runout of 5♥Q♥ improved Temm's hand to a full house for the main pot but didn't change the situation for the sidepot which was awarded to Ruane.
