Brocato Eliminated in Exciting Three-Way All In

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Mike Holmstrom raised to 3,200 from early position and Justin Brocato three-bet shoved for 12,000 from middle position. Action folded over to the big blind, who re-shoved for 14,2000. Back on Holmstrom, he though for a moment before deciding to call. Cards on their backs.

Brocato: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}
Big Blind: {A-Clubs}{A-Spades}
Holmstrom: {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}

The {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} flop hit everyone, but the player in the big blind had a stranglehold on the pot with his top set. However, the {J-Hearts} on the turn gave Holmstrom quads and left the other two players drawing dead. The meaningless {9-Spades} completed the board, giving Holmstrom the double knockout.
