James Weatherman Triples
Nathan Zimnik opened to 40,000 from early position, and action folded to Jesse Lonis in middle position, and he called. Tamon Nakamura was on the button and called, as did James Weatherman in the big blind.
The flop fell [8c6h5s], and action checked through.
The dealer burned and turned [Qc] and Weatherman bet 120,000. Zimnik called, and Lonis moved all in for 345,000. Nakamura folded, and Weatherman called all-in for 320,000. Zimnik called having both players covered.
Zimnik: [Ac4c]
Weatherman: [9h7h]
Lonis: [6d6s]
The river [9d] completed the board, and Weatherman’s flopped straight held to triple in the main pot. Lonis’ set of six held for the side pot, but he was left with just 40,000.
