Vanier Vanquishes Opposition in Three-Way Three-Bet Pot
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Michael Vanier raised to the minimum of 40,000 under the gun. Oystein Kristoffersen called in the cutoff, after which David Wintersberger three-bet to 150,000 on the button.
Both Vanier and Kristoffersen called, after which the Q♣6♠8♠ flop was fanned. It checked to Wintersberger, who continued for 125,000. Vanier called, but Kristoffersen got out of the way.
The 5♣ turn and 7♦ river saw both players knuckle the table, and Vanier revealed A♦Q♥ at showdown. His top pair won him the pot when Wintersberger mucked his cards, seeing the table chipleader increase his stack further.
