Ige Knocks Out Two
Level 11
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Hossein Madani limped in under the gun and Joni Jouhkimainen raised to 54,000 as next to act. It then folded to Andrew Ige on the button, who three-bet to 175,000.
Both Madani and Jouhkimainen called to the 2♣J♠9♥ flop, where Madani checked to Jouhkimainen. Jouhkimainen piled in his stack of 117,000, after which Ige raised to also put Madani at risk.
Madani called off his stack of 230,000, creating a three-way showdown.
Joni Jouhkimainen: K♥K♦J♦3♥ 
Hossein Madani: 7♠6♥4♦3♠
Andrew Ige: A♦A♣7♦2♠
The 5♦ river provided some outs to Madani, but the 10♠ river missed him and Jouhkimainen both. Ige's aces held for the entire both, scoring two knockouts and soaring to over 2,000,000.
