Dimitri Melissourgos opened to 450,000. James Roullier called and Christopher Alcindor three-bet the pot to 2,100,000. Both opponents called.
The flop came J♠5♦3♥. Melissourgos shoved. Roullier shoved. Alcindor called putting both opponents at risk.
James Roullier: A♠9♦9♥4♥2♠
Dimitri Melissourgos: A♣K♦K♥10♥2♣
Christopher Alcindor: A♥A♦5♥5♣2♦
Alcindor had flopped middle set, with the nut low draw. All players had the nut low draw, but the cased 2♥ came on the turn improving Roullier and only Roullier to a wheel. Alcindor needed the board to pair but the river was the 8♦.
Alcindor did end up quartering Melissourgos, but Roullier scooped the main pot three ways to chip up to over nine million in chips.
