Andreas Altmeyer was just involved in a huge three-way all-in hand in which he had both of his opponents covered. The money went in on a flop of {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{9-Clubs}

{6-Hearts}

. Altmeyer had {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{9-Diamonds}

for top set, one opponent had {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

{5-Spades}

for the flopped straight, and the third had {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{10-Diamonds}

for a draw to a higher straight.

The turn was the {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

, changing nothing, but the river came the {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

, giving Altmeyer the full house and knocking out two opponents. That huge pot pushes Altmeyer up to 315,000.
