Niveau 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Quinn Ledvina moved all-in for his remaining 87,000 from middle position. He received a call from a player in late position followed by an all-in from the player in the small blind for just over Ledvina's stack. The player in late position called, covering both players.

Quinn Ledvina: A♠10♦
Middle Position: 10♠10♥
Late position: J♦J♣

Ledvina was in bad shape against the two pocket pairs but the board ran out 6♠2♠8♥2♣A♥. The ace on the river was good for a triple up and Ledvina scooped a decent pot.
