Double Bustout for Barrera

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Tony Barrera
Tony Barrera

On a multi-way flop of A69, Donald Helmig led out for 300,000 from under-the-gun but then Tony Barrera moved all in from the button to cover. Ralph Smith moved all in behind for less and Helmig put the rest of his chips in there as well and all the cards were tabled.

Ralph Smith: 94
Donald Helmig: K3
Tony Barrera: AQ

Barrera was in the lead with his pair of aces, but still needed to fade a lot of cards to keep it that way. The turn A improved him to trip aces to take Smith out of the equation, and the river 5 was a brick for him to scoop the entire pot, eliminating both opponents.
