    Well… in a tournament, any time is a good time to triple up, but Joel Moreau, an experienced local tournament player, has just managed this in a hand with Travis Robertson and Massinissa Belaid.

    We arrived at the table on the turn with the board reading 5 of Clubs 2 of Spades 10 of Clubs 4 of Hearts. Massinissa had checked, Travis (in middle position) bet 17K, and Joel went all in for more – but only a little more, 21,700. Action was on Massinissa, who went in the tank for some time before eventually making the call. Travis made the call as well and the river was dealt: King of Spades.

    The way the board read, that was pretty much a brick for all concerned, and the two players in the side pot (Travis and Massinissa) both chose to just check. The cards were exposed:

    Massinissa: Queen of Clubs 8 of Clubs
    Travis: Ace of Diamonds 5 of Spades
    Joel: 10 of Diamonds 10 of Hearts

    The flopped set of 10s took down the hand.
