Three-Way Lebanese All-In Sees Chehade Triple Up

Level 7 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

On a flop of 2J3, Rudolf Fourie had fired out 5,500 from early position and got a call from Georges Chehade in the hijack. Edgard Raffoul also called on the button, then Imad Saab shoved from the big blind for around 60,000. Fourie folded, and Chehade stuck in his last 22,500. Raffoul was thinking for quite some time and after a while, put in the chips to put two players at risk.

Georges Chehade: A6 All in
Imad Saab: 32 All in
Edgard Raffoul: KJ

Saab was in the lead with his two pair, but it was Chehade who took the lead after he turned the nut flush when the 8 appeared. A 7 river was clean for Chehade, which meant he more than tripled up, and Saab took the side pot from Raffoul.
