Suvarna Triples Up, Barbero Departs in Huge Three-Way All-In
Nacho Barbero had raised to 35,000 preflop from the cutoff and was called by Santhosh Suvarna on the button and Ben Lamb in the big blind. The flop then fell 5♥10♦9♠ and Lamb checked.
Barbero made a bet of 55,000, which Suvarna raised to 300,000. Lamb then shoved all in, covering both of his opponents.
Barbero spent a few minutes in the tank before calling for roughly 540,000 chips, as did Suvarna for his stack of 433,000, leading to a three-way showdown.
Santhosh Suvarna: K♣10♣9♥8♦
Nacho Barbero: A♦Q♥J♥J♦
Ben Lamb: Q♦J♣10♠5♣
The 7♦ turn gave Barbero the nut flush draw in addition to his open-ender, but the A♣ bricked out for everyone.
Suvarna won the main pot with two pair, tens and nines, and Lamb won the small side pot with two pair, tens and fives.
Barbero got no part of any pot and headed out the tournament area with 15 minutes left on Day 1.
