Will Souther Triples, Ali Eslami Doubles

Sep 21, 2010

Ali Eslami raises to 13,000 in middle position and Olivier Busquet reraises to 31,000 behind him.  Will Souther is on the button and moves all-in for his last 37,000.  Eslami then pushes all of his chips, save for the one 500 chip capping his cards, into the middle.  He has around 160,000.

Busquet takes a minute before calling and starts to turn over his [AsKd].

"Wait," Eslami says.  "I still have chips behind."  He lifts his hand showing his lone remaining chip and Busquet turns his cards back over.  The flop falls [Ts4c2s] and Eslami checks.  Busquet bets 500 and Eslami takes a moment before calling with his [QcQs].  

Souther shows [KcKh], which means Busquet will need to hit one of the three remaining aces in the deck to knock out both players.  The turn is the [2h] and the river is the [3c], giving Souther the triple up and Eslami the double up.

Will Souther – 130,000
Ali Eslami – 230,000
Olivier Busquet – 690,000
