A Couple of Rare Three Bets

Level 35 : 150,000/300,000, 40,000 ante

Kimmo Kurko has been getting slightly frustrated for the last twenty minutes, not connecting with boards and losing to river cards. He was facing yet another button raise from Tom Middleton and finally had a legitimate hand on the big blind with {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}. A rare three bet from Kurko made Middleton lay down his {j-Spades}{6-Clubs}.

The very next hand Kurko raised with {a-Spades}{9-Hearts} and faced a three bet himself to 1,500,000 from Middleton holding {8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}. Kurko responded with an all-in and Middleton folded. A few pots there for Kurko may restore some confidence.
