Joseph Triples; Big Side Pot for Lambrecht; Fumes for Saliba
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Action was joined with three players already all in, but no board yet on the table.
Johanssy Joseph was all in for roughly 100,000; Matthew Lambrecht for around 280,000, and Justin Saliba had them both covered with a stack of 311,000.
Johanssy Joseph: A♥K♣
Matthew Lambrecht: A♣Q♥
Justin Saliba: K♦K♥
A promising situation for Saliba to amass a huge stack and pick up two bounties, worth $3,000 each.
The flop laid rest to those dreams, though, as the dealer fanned out a A♦J♣9♠ flop, improving both of Saliba's opponents to top pair.
The 9♦ turn and J♥ river kept standings as they were, meaning no bounties exchanged hands as Joseph tripled up and Lambrecht took the side pot.
