Ladev Triples Up
Niveau 20
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
With Markkos Ladev automatically all-in in the big blind for 35,000 chips, Chris Brewer opened to 160,000 from the hijack. Duco ten Haven came along in the small blind to create a side pot.
Brewer grew that side pot when he made a bet of 90,000 on the 10♠4♣3♣ board, which Ten Haven check-called. On the K♣ turn, both players checked before Ten Haven led out for the minimum of 80,000 on the J♥ river.
A quick fold followed by Brewer, and Ten Haven showed A♦J♣ to rake in the side pot. However, his pair was not high enough to eliminate Ladev, as he played K♥6♦ for top pair and tripled up to just over one big blind.
