Branchen More Than Doubles; Eliminates a Player
Niveau 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
A player from early position moved all in for 64,000. Matt Bond called before Clinton Branchen three-bet all in from the big blind for 240,000. With the action back on Bond, he thought before calling to put two players at risk.
Early position: 4♦4♠ 
Clinton Branchen: A♠J♦
Matt Bond: 8♣7♣
The flop Q♠10♥6♦ gave both Bond and Branchen a gutshot straight draw. The turn K♦ completed Branchen's straight with the 4♣ giving the third player in the hand a set, but it wasn't enough as he was eliminated and Branchen doubled through Bond.
