Alvarez's Mood Goes From Delight to Dismay as Bastida Scoops Three-Way All In

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Juan Bastida

A three-way all in pot played out between Cristian Alvarez, Nicola Spallanzani, and Juan Bastida with two of the players sharing the same hand.

Juan Bastida: AK All in
Cristian Alvarez: QQ All in
Nicola Spallanzani: AK

It was a dream scenario for Alvarez, who only needed to win a flip to almost triple up. Spallanzani had the biggest stack, but it seemed unlikely that he could scoop the pot unless the board brought some surprises.

A flop of 36J was safe for Alvarez, but Bastida did pick up the nut flush draw. An A on the turn sunk Alvarez as he was drawing to just one out, but left Bastida delighted as he was freerolling for the main pot. Bastida spiked his flush on the 6 river and thumped the table in celebration, as Alvarez was sent to the rail.
