Team Takafuji Hold for the Triple

Level 20 : 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Three players had all their chips in the middle before the flop and Hideki Takafuji of Team Takafuji was the shortest with 140,000.

Team Canowitz: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Tewam Besancon: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Team Takafuji: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

Takafuji was in great shape as both his opponents had the same hand. The rail pre-celebrated as soon as the cards were shown and the table chimed in, "uh-oh! Now a King is for sure going to come"

There was no jinx for Takafuji though as the board ran out {4-Hearts}{2-Spades}{2-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and his pocket queens held for the triple.
