Etienne Sends Shorties Packing

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

The player under the gun shipped his last 275 in, and multiple players called. The cutoff then moved all in for 1,375, the button folded, and Wesley Etienne in the small blind shoved for an additional 1,100. Everyone else folded and the players showed their hands:

UTG: {a-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}
Cutoff: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}
Etienne: {A-Diamonds}{a-Spades}

The flop gave the trailing players a bit of hope, as {10-Spades}{2-Spades}{9-Hearts} gave the under-the-gun player a pair and the cutoff a backdoor straight draw. However, the {3-Hearts} and {4-Diamonds} sent both players to the rail, and Etienne is back in business with 5,000 chips.
