Chau Triples Up
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Action folded to Jordan Thompson who raised all in from middle position for 265,000. Tsz Chau then went all in for 67,000, and the small blind Lukas Hafner made the call to put both players at risk.
Tsz Chau: 9?9?
Jordan Thompson: A?K?
Lukas Hafner: A?Q?
Chau was ahead with his pocket nines, while Thompson had Hafner dominated in the side pot. The board ran out 5?9?K?10?6? to give Chu the main pot and triple up with his set of nines.
For the larger side pot, Thompson's pair of kings was best, and was able to win a sizable pot.
