Thorel Wins Three-Way Pot
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel in the big blind, Gianluca Cedolia in early position, and Dzmitry Urbanovich in middle position were looking at a flop of 6♣4♥2♥.
Thorel checked to Cedolia, who bet 2,300. Urbanovich then raised to 5,300. Thorel called the raise, causing Cedolia to muck his cards.
The 9♠ river was then checked through before Thorel fired 5,500 on the 10♦ river. Urbanovich tossed in a call, after which Thorel tabled 6♥4♠ for two pair.
Urbanovich's cards hit the muck. The pot was shipped to Thorel, who ended up with nearly two starting stacks.
