Steve Karp Triples Up, John Templeton Wins Side Pot

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante

Steve Karp went all in for his last 1,525 from the cutoff, and John Templeton called on the button. The small blind raised to 5,000, and Templeton went all in. His opponent called and had him covered by a small margin.

Karp: {J-Spades}{5-Spades}
Templeton: {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}
Small blind: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {8-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Spades} {10-Clubs} {J-Hearts}, and Karp tripled up with two pair, jacks and fives. Templeton won a sizeable side pot with ace-king high, and the third player was left with under 2,000 chips.
