Veksler Triples as Papadopoulos Dents Yang
Level 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Pavlo Veksler moved all in for 87,000 from middle position and was called by Kyriakos Papadopoulos from the button. Chongxian Yang jammed for 840,000 from the small blind, folding out the big blind. Papadopoulos, who started with 660,000, called off the reminder of their stack and the cards were tabled.
Pavlo Veksler: K♣10♦
Kyriakos Papadopoulos: A♦Q♦
Chongxian Yang: A♠J♦
Papadopoulos had the best of it, and was the favorite for the main pot alongside the much larger side pot.
However, Veksler made trips on the 10♠10♥2♠ flop to become the favorite. The A♣ turn and 3♥ river confirmed his triple up while Papadopoulos added to his stack thanks to his superior ace.
