Fitzgerald Triples Up with Jacks
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Play was underway with a main pot of around 60,000 and a side pot of around 30,000. Kurt Fitzgerald, all-in on the main pot was waiting with Jeremy Wien and Marius Gierse for the dealer to fan out the flop.
The flop came Q♥9♣A♠. Wien bet 45,000 which was enough push Gierse out of the side. Wien scooped the side pot and headed to showdown against Fitzgerald.
Kurt Fitzgerald: J♠J♦ 
Jeremy Wien: 10♦9♦
Wien had bottom pair but couldn't beat Fitzgerald's jacks. The runout 7♥3♥ didn't improve Wien's hand. The dealer awarded the main pot to Fitzgerald, resulting in a triple up for him.
