CPPT Main Event (Day 3): After Blinding Down To Three Bigs, Lillaney Triples Up

2018 Card Player Poker Tour (Isle Casino Pompano Park)
Event #8 | $1,100 No Limit Hold'em ($250,000 GTD)
Level 24 (Blinds 15,000/30,000/30,000)
Total Event #8 Entries: 310
Event #8 Players Remaining: 7

Gautam Lillaney (Kingston, Jamaica) was one card away from elimination, but was able to triple up, after rivering trip threes.

Gautam Lillaney (Kingston, Jamaica) hadn't been able to find any traction during today's final table, and would see his stack dwindle down to three big blinds.  With the big blind impending (for a total of 60,000), Lillaney shoved from under the gun for 110,000, and would be called by both blinds (Bretzfield and Bush). 

The two active players would check down the 8 3 7♣ 4♠ 3 runout, with Lillaney quickly slamming his hand on the table.  "I got it," Guatam said loudly, as he showed A♠ 3♠ (having made trips on the river).  He needed every bit of it, as Bush turned a pair of fours, which would have knocked out Gautam.

Gautam Lillaney - 360,000 (12bb)
