Plesuv Nearly Triples up; Mighall Out in Three-Way Clash
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Pavel Plesuv opened to 55,000 from early position and was called by Phillip Mighall in middle position. Maxi Lehmanski squeezed to 235,000 from the small blind and both Plesuv and Mighall called for a massive three-way pot.
The flop came 10♥3♣9♠ and it didn't take long for all three players to commit their stacks into the middle, with Mighall on the shortest stack and Lehmanski with a covering stack.
Phillip Mighall: J♠10♠9♣7♣
Pavel Plesuv: K♠Q♣J♣4♠
Maxi Lehmanski: A♦A♥8♦2♣
The Q♥ turn immediately improved Plesuv to the nut straight and the 6♠ river changed nothing — awarding the entire pot to Plesuv and eliminating Mighall from contention.
