Kotsines Scoops, Eliminates Two

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Justin Barnes open-shoved in late position for around 130,000and got called by Eric Kotsines in cutoff. Caleb King, who had less than Barnes, called from the big blind, leading to a three-way showdown.

Caleb King: J9 All in
Justin Barnes: J10 All in
Eric Kotsines: KQ

Kotsines was ahead with king-high, leaving both King and Barnes to hope that one of their cards would hit the board. But the board ran A642A sending both King and Barnes to the payout counter to collect their cashout together.
