Event 23: Three Way All In Weeeeeeeeeeeee

$300 +$50

Wow, what a hand.

Richard Logue shoves his short stack all in for 23,000 holding K-10.

Mark Gordon looks down at A-K of diamonds and isolates with an all-in shove of his own.

Then Doug Adkins wakes up to K-K and ships it, risking his tournament.

Doug had K-K earlier and a woman with K-Q snap called her only to find runner, runner for the straight. So once again Doug's taking a shot with the best hand. Every King was flipped pre-flop on the felt.

Doug felt some sweat on the flop as it fell 7-Q-J giving Richard Logue an open ended straight draw.

2 on the turn was innocent enough.

But the Ace on the river would take all of Doug's dough as Mark Gordon's A-K had him covered.

Logue, who hit broadway, was happy to triple up and could only muster out one word to sum it all up, "Lucky".

As Adkins walked up to get his 14th place $876 prize money, all he could say was, "Unreal".
