Another Three-way All In
From the cutoff seat, Team PokerStars Pro Chris Moneymaker raised to 32,000. David "Doc" Sands was in the small blind and reraised all in for 206,000. In the big blind sat Erika Cerasti and she peeled back the corners of her cards before pausing for a moment. Cerasti then called all in for 131,000. Moneymaker now had a decision to make: go for the double knockout or save the chips for later? He chose the first option and made the call.
