Witteles Wins Battle of Top Three Hands
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Answering the siren call of "Get PokerNews over here!", the following scene was witnessed. Todd Witteles had raised from early position, another early position player reraised, and then Kyle Miholich had moved all in from the big blind.
Witteles re-shoved and the early position player called all in.
Early Position: Q♠Q♥
Kyle Miholich: K♠K♦
Todd Witteles: A♦A♥
The 8♠6♠8♦ gave Miholich some back door flush outs. Those evaporated on a 7♣ turn, leaving Miholich and the early position player just their two outs each to beat Witteles, or eight outs for a brutal chop. Witteles dodged all of those scenarios on a clean 6♥ river, scoring the double knockout.
