Event #10 ($1,200 No-Limit Hold'em) Andy Frankenberger Triples Up

Andy Frankenberger - Just After Tripling Up

Level: 6
Blinds: 200/400
Ante: 50

Right before the break a strange hand took place that resulted in a triple up for professional poker player Andy Frankenberger.

There were three players to see the K♥4♦3♦7♠ board (and 10,000 in the middle). Jiqiang Tong checked in the small blind and though action was on Andy Frankenberger in middle position, the player in hijack had said "I call."  Action pauses and Frankenberger asked, "What did you say?"  The player said again, "I call."  The floor is called over and after some back and forth discussion regarding whether the hijack is required to call due to a rule that prevents angle shooting, (and after the hijack has admitted to calling out of turn to "get in Frankenberger's head"), Frankenberger announced that he is all in.

It was unclear if the hijack understood/heard the floor ruling and frustratingly said, "Alright, I'm all in," and flips over K♦J♦ (top pair and a flush draw) (forgetting that Tong was still in the hand and had yet to act.) The situation started drawing a crowd and while players and now two floors continued to discuss the action and what's happened, Tong asks the dealer for a count of both chip stacks.  The dealer tells Tong that Frankenberger shoved for 17,800 and the hijack shoved for 33,300. 

After another two minutes Tong called, having both players covered, and all players tabled their cards: 

Frankenberger:  4♣4♠ (set of fours)
Hijack: K♦J♦ (pair of kings and a flush draw)
Tong: A♠K♣ (top pair, top kicker)

The J♣  river was safe for Frankenberger awarding him a triple up, and it also gave the hijack two pair, awarding him the side pot.  He is also required to sit out three hands for exposing his cards with action pending.

Andy Frankenberger - 55,000
Jiqiang Tong - 13,000
