Desset Hits a Miracle Triple Against the Same Hand
Darius Samual raised to 125,000 under the gun and Jonathan Pastore three-bet to 800,000 next to act. Andrej Desset then moved all in for 925,000 in the small blind.
Samual tanked for several minutes until the clock was called. He eventually moved all in for 1,700,000 and Pastore called all in for less.
Andrej Desset: A♥K♠
Jonathan Pastore: A♣K♥
Darius Samual: A♦K♣
Everyone had ace-king and the three players were poised to chop up the massive pot as the flop came 3♥4♠2♠. The turn was the A♠ and Desset was suddenly freerolling with a flush draw.
The 6♠ spiked on the river and Desset hit his flush to triple up, leaving Pastore with less than two big blinds.
"Everyone's taking a picture," a tablemate said as several players took out their phones to snap photos of the board.
