I witnessed this hand in a FreeRoll tournament on Empire Poker.

Blinds (200/400) – 8 players

UTG folds, UTG+1 raises 800, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, CO folds, Button calls 800, SB raises 1000, BB folds, UTG+1 raises 800, Button calls 800, SB calls 400

Flop

5sKc8c

SB checks, UTG+1 is All-In, Button is All-In, SB is All-In

Turn

Th

River

Qs

SB shows AsAd a pair of aces. UTG+1 shows AcKd a pair of kings. Button shows KsKh three of a kind, kings.

SB wins 5302 chips with a pair of aces. Button wins 9976 chips with three of a kind, kings.

I don’t think I could have folded any of those hands after the flop either. AcKd was dominated the whole way. The only way he was going to win the hand was with a flush or straight. Ouch!
