Kruse Hits the Best Flush to Triple Up

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

A three-way all-in involved Ayman Alqarqaz in middle position, Nikolaos Angelou at risk for 121,000 from two seats over and Max Kruse in the hijack with 113,000.

Max Kruse: QQ All in
Nikolaos Angelou: 1010 All in
Ayman Alqarqaz: AA

Alqarqaz was on his way to score a double elimination, but on 93K42, both Kruse and Angelou hit a flush. Kruse had the best one so he tripled up, while Angelou was left with the side pot. "It was fun," Alqarqaz said despite losing the pot.
