| James Newcomb (Parkland, FL) triples up after turning a straight, and watching his two opponents stick all of their chips in the middle. |
Action was approached at Table 4, with three players looking down at a board of K♥ 9♦ 3♥ J♣. Carlos Loving led the turn for 8,500, with James Newcomb (Parkland, FL) flatting the bet, and Frank Martin going in the tank. After about a minute of thought, Martin collected his chips and dropped them across his cards, going all-in for 16,250.
Carlos Loving had both players covered, and took little time before making the call, with James Newcomb almost beating both players into the pot (with a stack of 16,450). James had turned the nut-straight with Q♥ 10♠, and would be up against the K♦ J♦ of Martin, and the A♦ K♠ of Loving. The A♠ on the river would improve Loving to two-pair, but that just left him as the second place finisher in the hand. Newcomb would collect the pot worth over 50,000, vaulting himself up the leaderboard.
James Newcomb - 51,500
