Big Three-Way All-In Pot

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

On the {Q-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Diamonds} flop, Mike Watson, Roger Tondeur and Dan O'Brien all got the money in. Watson was short and open-shoved the flop, before Tondeur called, O'Brien raised, Tondeur reraised all in, and O'Brien called.

Tondeur held the {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} for middle set of nines, but he was behind both of his opponents. O'Brien held the {J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and Watson the {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} — both had flopped queen-high straights.

The turn was the {6-Clubs}, and the river was the {3-Hearts}. Both of those cards failed to pair the board, and Tondeur lost the pot. O'Brien had him covered, and Tondeur was eliminated.
