Swerdlow Dances His Way to a Triple Up
Level 28
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Diogo Coelho raised to 160,000 from middle position, Jonathan Swerdlow called off the bet for his last 145,000, and Yassine Baqal defended in the big blind.
With action on the side, it was threeways to a 6♥K♦Q♣ flop. Baqal check-called a bet of 100,000 from Coelho.
The A♣ turn saw Baqal check and then fold to a bet of 200,000 from Coelho, who earned himself the side pot.
Jonathan Swerdlow: A♦A♠
Diogo Coelho: A♥Q♦
Swerdlow had been dancing to himself in his seat the entirety of the hand, which seemingly brought him some luck as the 9♥ river ensured his top set saw him triple up.
