Zhou Scoops a Monster Side Pot
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Pot-Limit Omaha
The hijack raised to 7,000, Quan Zhou called in the cutoff and the button squeezed to 31,000. Joe Klonowski, in the small blind, called off the bet for his last 21,500, and the hijack called off the bet for their last 22,000. Zhou also called the button's raise.
The flop landed 3♥J♥9♠ and Zhou moved all in, putting the button to the test for their effective stack of approximately 95,000. The button snap-called.
Joe Klonowski: Q♣Q♠10♥2♠ 
Hijack: K♥J♣J♠3♣
Button: A♣A♦10♦6♦
Quan Zhou: 10♣9♦8♣7♦
The hijack was ahead with their set of jacks, however, the K♣ turn and 10♠ river gave Klonowski a straight which was good for the main pot. Zhou made a smaller straight to claim a hefty side pot.
