Zagreda Triples Up With No Pair

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante

Paul Zagreda got the last of his stack in before the flop, risking 27,000 or so with the {A-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}.

His two opponents held {9-}{9-} and {10-}{10-} to put Zagreda at risk, and when the flop fell {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{q-Spades} he missed the big cards he was looking for. Any ace or jack would still do though, but the {3-Spades} on the turn was another brick.

River: {k-Clubs}

With the board now double-paired, Zagreda's ace-high hand had counterfeited the pocket pairs which nearly sent him home early. He now holds just over the average with a few minutes to play before the dinner break.
