Wickens Nearly Triples, Eliminates Van Bussel
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
James Wickens had raised to 30,000 on the button and Joris van Bussel jammed in his 80,000 stack from the small blind. Boris Chong-Sit then four-bet jammed in the big blind, covering Wicken's stack of 170,000.
Wicken weighed his options for a bit but eventually decided he could not fold and slammed in a call to create a three-way all-in.
Joris van Bussel: K♥J♥ 
James Wickens: Q♥Q♦
Boris Chong-Sit: A♣K♣
Wickens was the only player to make a full house on the 2♠8♣3♦8♠8♦ runout and he raked in a pot large enough to almost triple him up. Van Bussel was left seeking the exit, on the other hand, while Chong-Sit was left with just 15 big blinds.
