Wow.

Jim Collopy started the action, raising to 5,000 from middle position. Elliot Smith re-raised to 12,000, Markus Gonsalves four-bet to 25,000, and Collopy five-bet to 45,400. Smith moved all in for 98,900, Gonsalves moved all in for 104,300, and Collopy called having both players covered.

Collopy: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Smith: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}
Gonsalves: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

Like we said, wow.

The aces held as the board ran {4-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{j-Spades}{5-Spades}, and the three stacks now look like this:
