Gera Gets Lucky

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

After the player in the cutoff raised to 2,500 Nikhil Gera three-bet shoved from his small blind, the big-blind player then four-bet shoved and the original raiser made the call to create a possible side pot.

Nikhil Gera: {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs}
Big-blind Player: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Cutoff: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Gera got it in behind but was happy to see those two hands. The {3-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} flop gave him a lot of outs to score the triple-up, and the {k-Diamonds} turn was one of those since the other two players were now drawing dead and there was no possibility of a side pot, which meant the {4-Hearts} river changed nothing.
