Van Veghel Triples Up
Level 15
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Andrej Desset raised to 7,500 in middle position and picked up calls from Samuel Klintmalm in the hijack and Karan Kapur in the cutoff. Godefridus van Veghel then three-bet to 33,000 in the small blind and Desset folded. Klintmalm then potted, Kapur moved all in, and Van Veghel called for 44,500 while Klintmalm also called for 135,000.
Godefridus van Veghel: A♦10♣9♠3♦ 
Samuel Klintmalm: J♦J♣9♣5♦
Karan Kapur: A♣A♥10♠4♦
Kapur was ahead with his aces, but both opponents ended up with a flush on the 9♦7♥5♥6♦2♦ board. Van Veghel's ace-high flush earned him a triple up, while Klintmalm took the side pot off Kapur.
