Power Takes Out Two for Chip Lead
Level 3
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
The under-the-gun player limped in before Chad Power made it 1,000 from the button. The small blind three-bet to 3,100 and the original limper called. Power then committed his stack of 26,500 and the small blind, who had 25,000, did the same. The under-the-gun player also put his 20,000 stack across the line to set up the three-way all in.
Under the gun: K?5?4?3?
Small Blind: A?A?10?6?
Chad Power: A?Q?Q?3?
The 9?8?5? flop kept the small blind's aces ahead for the entire pot, but the 4? turn saw Power take the low for at least half of the pot. The 2? river completed Power's nut-low and wheel straight for the scoop, scoring him two eliminations and the chip lead early on.
