With 360,000 in the middle on a board of 10♥7♣4♥3♥, Michal Plichta checked from the small blind to Alex Aubrey in early position, who fired out a bet of 150,000.

Andrew Durkan jammed from middle position for 596,000, and Plichta rejammed for around 900,000.

Aubrey called with the covering stack, creating a huge three-way all-in.

Andrew Durkan: A♦A♥
Michal Plichta: 4♦4♣
Alex Aubrey: 10♣10♠

In an unbelievable cooler, it was aces versus a set of tens versus a set of fours.

However, the drama was not over. The A♠ appeared on the river to make it three sets, and Durkan let out a gutteral war cry of delight, shouting “Yes, come on! Come on!” repeatedly as he pulled a miracle triple-up.

Aubrey busted Plichta in the side pot.

Andrew Durkan – 2,148,000
Alex Aubrey – 1,340,000
Michal Plichta – 0
