Two Triple-Ups in a Row
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Mehmet Siginc three-bet to then see Jarod Minghini jam for 17,000 on the button and Ahmad Popal do so for little more in the small blind. Jonathan Nebbout as the initial raiser folded and Siginc called.
Jarod Minghini: Q♠Q♣
Ahmad Popal: A♠K♣
Mehmet Siginc: 10♦6♦
The 8♠4♠2♦J♣7♣ board gave last year's eighth-place finisher the triple-up while Popal was left on fumes.
Popal was then all-in the next hand from the button with Joshua Payne and Nebbout getting their chips in as well.
Ahmad Popal: 9♠9♥
Joshua Payne: A♦3♥
Jonathan Nebbout: A♥5♥
The 10♠7♣4♦7♥6♣ board gave Popal the triple-up and more.
