Boon for Boone

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

A late-stage triple through has given Matthew Boone��s stack a new lease of life as he enters the final level of the day. Action was opened by the under the gun player (raising to 12,000), and two seats along Boone moved all in for his last 67,000. He probably wasn��t expecting to be called in two spots before action returned to the original raiser, but that��s exactly what happened, the first player calling with 380,000 behind and the second with under 100,000.

Flop: {4-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}. The larger stacked side pot player check-folded to the smaller-stacked one��s 45,000 bet, and the latter showed down {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}. The overpair turned out not to be good; Boone turned over {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts} for a flopped set and stayed ahead over the {3-Clubs}{a-Hearts} turn and river.
