Kiani Flops the Goods to Win Massive Three-Way All In
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Kian Kiani, Mounir Tajiou, and Ian Bradley went to a flop of Q♦10♥8♥ where Kiani got in his last 183,000 from the cutoff, Tajiou put in his last 120,000 from early position, and Bradley put both players at risk. A large crowd began to gather around the table as the cards were revealed.
Mounir Tajiou: A♠A♥ 
Kian Kiani: J♥9♥
Ian Bradley: K♥Q♥
Kiani had flopped the nut straight, while Bradley had top pair and a flush draw and Tajiou had aces. The J♣ turn also gave Bradley his own straight draw, but he missed on the 5♦ river as Kiani scooped the entire pot, sending Tajiou to the rail and earning a massive double up off Bradley.
"I missed a flight to come here. I came to this tournament six hours late," Kiani said.
