Leslie Trebles His Stack
Level 25
: 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
John Leslie was down to around 300,000 when faced a raise from Robert Buky and a call from Terence Etim. Leslie moved all in and both his opponents called.
On the 
flop, Buky bet 250,000 into the side pot and Etim called. On the 
turn Etim again called a bet from Buky, this time for 450,000.
Buky moved all in on the 
river and Etim folded. Buky won the side pot and both players turned their cards over for the result of the main pot.
Robert Buky: 
John Leslie: 
Leslie trebled up as his top pair was good enough to swoop in the main pot and keep him alive in the Main Event.
