Marocha More Than Triples Up
A player under the gun raised to 120,000 with William Butcher calling behind. Vishal Marocha three-bet to 240,000, leaving himself 50,000 behind and Steve Rutilo in the cutoff jammed just behind him for around 420,000.
The player under the gun folded and Butcher called, quickly followed by Marocha calling for his last 50,000 and setting up a three-way runout with Butcher having both opponents at risk.
Vishal Marocha: A♦K♥
Steve Rutilo: 7♦7♠
William Butcher: A♥Q♠
The K♦3♣10♠ flop put Marocha in the lead but Butcher was still drawing to a gut shot straight to send both players hom.
The turn and river of the 4♦ and the A♣ both came safe for Marocha as he more than tripled up with Butcher taking the scraps in the form of a small side pot as Rutilo headed for the exit.
