Three-Way Scoop Potential in Near 6 Million Chip Pot
K♦7♦J♠5♥5♠
6♣9♦8♥2♥A♣
On the flop, Jesse Lonis bet out for 120,000. Devin Maio called, and Julio Trimmer did the same two doors down. Hokyiu Lee then potted to 840,000, and Lonis repotted covering the table. Maio went into the tank before calling all in, but Trimmer got out of the way quickly. Lee announced "I have a crazy hand: top set and top set," before sticking in the call.
Hokyiu Lee: K♠K♣9♣9♠
Devin Maio: J♦J♥10♥2♦
Jesse Lonis: A♥Q♣10♦7♠
Lee did indeed have two lots of top set, with Lonis holding a wrap on top and nuts on bottom. Maio had a massive piece too, with middle set and diamonds on top, with an open-ender and backdoor hearts on the bottom.
The runouts were sweaty, with each player having a chance to scoop, but it was Lonis and Lee who would chop it up, with Lonis' nuts holding true, and Lee improving to a boat.
Maio was left with just a single 5,000 chip after chopping the sidepot with Lonis.
