Bierria Triples; Bicknell Gets the Leftovers

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

With a flop of {6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{8-Hearts} in front of them, Kristen Bicknell had two players all in and at risk, one of them being Corey Bierria.

Bicknell: {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Bierria: {j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Bierria had the best of it, just needing to fade hearts and straight combos. The turn was the {4-Clubs}, and the {j-Spades} fell on the river, giving Bierria two pair and the triple-up.

Bicknell's pair of sixes were enough to win the side pot and eliminate the third player in the hand, softening the blow just a little bit.
