Suk Triples Up!

A massive three-way all in confrontation has seen Chang Yong Suk nearly triple up. A short-stacked player came over the top of an opening raise from Hyoungjin Nam but Suk made the call in the blinds. Nam then reraised enough to put Suk all in and he called for his tournament life.

The short-stacked player sheepishly tabled {9-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}, but had live cards against the {A-Spades}{J-Spades} of Suk and {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades} of Nam.

The crowd gathered around the table to watch the board run out {Q-Spades}{9-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{K-Spades} giving Suk the nut flush and a triple up to over 35,000 chips. Nam slips back to 25,000.
