Loosli Triples; Sekularac Eliminates Metaal in Same Hand
A big pot just went down that resulted in the elimination of Govert Metaal.
It began when Martin Jacobson opened for 1,600 under the gun and Sylvain Loosli shoved all in for 13,100. Ognjen Sekularac was next to act and called, which inspired Metaal to four-bet to 29,8000 from the big blind.
Jacobson got out of the way, Sekularac moved all in, and Metaal snap-called off for around 85,000 total.
Sekularac: 
Metaal: 
Loosli: 
Metaal threw up his arms as if to say, "What can you do?" Meanwhile, the short-stacked Loosli seemed thrilled that his ace was live.
The 
flop was no help to anyone, but the 
turn did pair Loosli, though he would need more on the river to stay alive. Wouldn't you know it, the 
peeled off to give him two pair and the triple. However, the side pot is where the big money was, and that was pushed Sekularac's way.
