Alexandre Gomes Wins Multi-Way All-in

In a big three-way pot Gerald Watterson opened with a bet to 8,500 from under the gun before Alexandre Gomes reraised all in. Paulus Valkenburg overcalled for his tournament life, and Watterson also made the call.

Watterson: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Gomes: {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}
Valkenburg: {J-Clubs}{J-Spades}

The board landed {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{K-Spades}{9-Spades} to give Gomes a full house to cripple Watterson and eliminate Valkenburg from the tournament.
