"April $100,000 GTD:" Page Appropriately Gets There On The "Turn"

"April $100,000 GTD"
$360 No Limit Hold'em Deep Stack
Level 7 (Blinds 250/500/50)
Total Flight 1C Entries: 97


John Page (Wellington, FL) 

There was a small group standing around Table 1, including a tournament supervisor, who hinted to us that something big was going down.  There was a three-way all-in between Martin Markov, Stephen Smith, and John Page (pictured above).  The chips got in on the 9♠ 6♣ 5♠ flop, with Markov having both players covered:

Markov: Q♠ 2♠
Page: 9♣ 5♣
Smith: 7♠ 8

Turn: 9
River: 3♠

Everyone had a little something on the flop, with Markov holding a flush draw, Page sitting with two-pair, and Smith having flopped the straight.  The turn would be the deciding moment in the hand though, as Page filled up, and left his opponents drawing dead.  Smith walked away from the table, while Page began to stack the pot, which was worth just over 90,000.  Martin was still left with chips after the hand, but is well below the 25,000 starting stack.

John Page - 94,000
