Triple Ups for Phua and Loon

Level 8 : Blinds 0/0, 6,000 ante

Lun Loon open-jammed for 306,000 and then saw Wei Hsiang Yeu also move all-in. Paul Phua contemplated to make it a three-way all-in from the hijack, which he indeed did after a few seconds. Both players behind folded and the cards were revealed.

Paul Phua 10?8?
Lun Loon: A?Q?
Wei Hsiang Yeu: A?Q?

Yong had put both players on ace-king but was equally happy to see identical hands, too. The A?9?6? flop gave Yong a gutshot straight flush draw, which didn't get there on the 6? turn just yet. However, the 7? river completed the straight and he tripled for 287,000.

Loon was left very short and tripled in the very next hand versus Yeu and Jun Wah Yap.

Lun Loon: 6?6?
Wei Hsiang Yeu: K?10?
Jun Wah Yap: Q?Q?

The best hand ended up worst on the J?9?7?K?6? board as Loon tripled with a two-outer and Yeu doubled for 118,000 against Yap.
