Matthew Wantman Triples Up Shortly After Break

Matthew "Bucky" Wantman Triples Up

A player in middle position raised to 12,000.  Matthew Wantman shoved all in from the cutoff, and a player in the small blind reshoved over the top.  The player in middle position asked for a count of the blind's chips and upon hearing the 100,000 total, called.

Wantman:  [as][10s]
Small Blind:  [ac][qd]
Middle Position:  [2h][2d]

The flop came [js][5d][6s] leaving the pair of twos in the lead.  But the [10c] on the turn gave Wantman a pair of tens.  The [5s] on the river meant the small blind was eliminated from play.  Wantman tripled up to 125,000 and the player in middle position was awarded the side pot.
