Unusual Three-Way Pot

After such a slow start, imagine our surprise when we encountered a rare three-way pot. It was German Dren Ukella who kicked things off, raising it up UTG and finding two callers in Samuel Chartier and Sebastian Ruthenberg on the button.

On a {J-Diamonds}

flop, Ukella continue bet for 86,000, which was flat-called by Chartier. Ruthenberg stepped out of the way.

A {Q-Clubs}

on the turn led to a second bet from Ukella. We couldn't make out the value of the bet, but once Chartier had made yet another smooth call, the pot had inflated to 679,000.

The seemingly blank {2-Spades}

on the river led to what the commentary referred to as a "trademark swerve bet from Ukella," who led out for a very diminutive 72,000. Chartier huffed before calling, but could only muck as Ukella revealed a triumphant {K-?}
