Kokubu Eliminates Two in Cooler

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Shogo Kokubu raised in early position and the player on his left three-bet to 3,600. The action folded around to the button who jammed his stack of 19,800 in the middle. The blinds quickly folded and Kokubu ripped his entire stack in the middle as well. The player who originally three-bet instantly called off his stack of 36,500 and all hands were tabled.

Opponent: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Button: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Shogo Kokubu: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

All three players had big pairs with Kokubu having the best starting hand possible and the board ran out {q-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Clubs} for his aces to hold and eliminate both players.
