John Murray opened to an unconventional 3,500 UTG. Nicusor Leonache (Cut-off) and James O’Rourke (Button) both made the call.

Murray wasted little time before going all in for 12,000 on the 9♦7♣6♣ flop. Leonache committed his 6,500 stack to make the call before O’Rourke got out of the way.

John Murray: Q♦Q♠
Nicusor Leonache: 3♥3♣

Leonache didn’t improve on the 8♦A♠ runout, and all his chips went the way of Murray.

John Murray: 33,000
Nicusor Leonache: 0
