Haraldstad Scoops a Three-Way Pot
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Joachim Haraldstad opened to 50,000 in the cutoff and was called by Maduka Meragal on the button and Pieter Aerts in the big blind. The flop came Q?J?3? and the action checked around to the 10? on the turn.
Haraldstad was the first to throw in a bet of 60,000 and Meragal raised to 180,000. Aerts flat-called and Haraldstad also came along to the K? on the river. All three players checked this time and Aerts showed Q?J? for two pair. Haraldstad tabled K?9? for a straight and Meragal's J?10? went into the muck.
