Andy Black Triples Up in Three-Way All In

Kings are good!
Kings are good!
After a preflop raising war that set Andy Black and Kevin O'Leary all in against Brian Patton (who had both men covered), the cards were turned on their backs:

Black {K-Spades} {K-Clubs}

O'Leary {7-Spades} {7-Diamonds}

Patton: {J-Spades} {J-Clubs}

The board ran out {10-Clubs} {4-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {Q-Spades} {A-Clubs} and Black's kings held, tripling him up to 14,000. O'Leary hit the rail, while Patton survived with 11,200 of his chips intact.
