Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

Action was picked up in a four-way pot between Edward Welch in first position, a player on the button and both blinds.

The turn {j-Diamonds} saw Welch check to the button who bet 3,500 which Welch called.

The river of {q-Diamonds} saw both players check and the button turned over {a-Spades}{k-Hearts} for aces and jacks. "I rivered you," stated Welch as he turned over {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} for aces and queens which was good for the pot.
